Accurate Object Tracking for Advanced Surgical Procedures

TT Electronics has partnered with Radwave Technologies to help bring an accurate, reliable, and customisable electromagnetic (EM) tracking platform to the surgical navigation market.

Real-time motion tracking when there's no line of sight

High accuracy & reliability reduces the need for radiation-based imaging, minimising harmful radiation to patient or staff

Low noise profile & low susceptibility to interference

Distortion detection and mitigation

Seamless integration into new and existing medical devices

The Best of Both Worlds:
