No, the Video Scout isn’t a robot camera (check out the spider pill if you want to see one of those) but it could enable robotic surgical equipment very easily. BC Tech offers customized integration partnerships for the Video Scout so that it can be used in some other device. Of course, there’s no guarantee that will happen, and I don’t want to over hype the importance this particular camera as it’s just one necessary component of a much larger (and as yet undefined) system. Still, I’m excited by companies taking a “divide and conquer” approach to advancing technology. Specializing in one aspect of a problem and making your work play well with others is a great strategy.
