Micro Electronics and Sensors
OrthoSensor’s electronic sensor modules are designed to be embedded into various delivery devices, such as intra-operative trials, surgical instrumentation and smart joint replacement implants. The company’s technology platform is designed for the integration of multiple miniaturized sensors, ranging from micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) to ultrasonic piezo electronics.
Numerous sensor combinations, with ultra high precision technology, have been designed to recognize changes in many physical properties, including:
| Angular Acceleration | Linear Acceleration | Density |
| Displacement | Distance | Elasticity |
| Mass | Flow | Load |
| Pressure | Relative Velocity | Shape |
| Strain | Temperature | Tilt |
| Torque | Vibration | Viscosity |
| Volume | Weight |
The minimal power requirements of OrthoSensor’s disposable instrument line enable an accurate, easy-to-use and low-cost alternative to computer-assisted surgery systems.
