Fiber optic shape sensing: making the invisible tangible in critical applications.
Fiber optic shape sensing has an outstanding capability to sense curvature and shape in 2D and 3D. The technology enables cutting-edge applications in the fields of robotic and standard minimally invasive surgery – such as real-time position tracking, instrument and catheter navigation, force and bending detection as well as deformation monitoring.
Our fiber optic shape sensing system comprises a sensor (FBGS ShapeProbe®), a measurement device (ShapeScan®) and the software that manages all the algorithms for data readout and processing.
