Teleoperations Feasibility Accelerator: Jumpstart Your Path to Remote Capabilities

advance Remote Surgical Innovation


MedAcuity’s Teleoperations Feasibility Accelerator is a modular framework designed to help surgical robotics teams rapidly prototype and evaluate teleoperation capabilities. It provides all the core components—communication pipeline, APIs, documentation, and source code—to enable secure, real-time remote control between surgeon and patient consoles.

Surgical Teleoperations

What’s Included in the Teleoperation Accelerator

  • Baseline source code & configuration files 
  • API set for easy integration 
  • Out-of-the-box support for Kinova and KUKA arms; easily extensible to other robotic platforms (including custom builds)

Core Components for Secure Remote Control


Medical System Processor (MSP)

Translates commands into safe robot controls; monitors jitter/latency; integrates with various robot arms


Video Pipeline

Real-time video streaming via GStreamer; optional DDS frame conversion


Safe Secure Communications (SSC)

IEC 61508 black channel implementation for transmitting safety-critical data—ensuring reliability and compliance without a safety-rated network 

MedAcuity’s scalable, safety critical system architecture enables real time coordination across Linux, QNX, and Windows environments using RTI Connext® and the Medtech Reference Architecture. Designed for low latency, high throughput communication and modular integration, it supports compliance with IEC 62304 and ISO 14971 while accelerating development and reducing technical risk.

Key Features of the Teleoperation Accelerator

  • Haptics-ready, enabling high-fidelity remote control 
  • Quality of Service (QoS) and interface controls 
  • Real-time latency/jitter monitoring with QNX for deterministic safety 
  • Automation framework and robust fault resistance 
  • Interoperable, extensible architecture—ready for clinical or R&D deployments 

Benefits of Accelerating Teleoperation Development

  • Accelerate proof-of-concept for teleoperation in weeks, not months 
  • De-risk development with compliant infrastructure 
  • Support new remote workflows, rapid clinical feedback, and future product evolution
