| OBJECTIVES |
This WP will study the medical and technological background in order to define the ARAKNES system requirements. An in-depth technology analysis will cover all aspects related to the technology platforms that are eligible to meet the goals of the project and to realize the medical requirements for the gastric surgical platform. |
| |
The main objective of the technology review is to highlight those solutions with the potential to be introduced in the platform without wasting resources in developing ad hoc technologies for each specific task. ARAKNES being a very multidisciplinary and multi-sectorial project, the technological background requires competences ranging from biomedical engineering, to electronic engineering, mechanical engineering, information science and physics. |
| |
Particular emphasis will be given to Intellectual Property Right (IPR) search, in order to understand and direct the development of novel devices toward market exploitation of results.In addition, it is crucial that the medical background and the technological background proceed in parallel, in order to focus always and only on the technologies which are useful for the specific medical problems addressed by ARAKNES. |
