Download - 3rd Ed Track Finals: RDFixer
RDFixer is a software application for correcting the radial distortion in medical endoscopy in real-time, improving the clinical performance of surgeries. It can either run in the camera control unit (RDSoft), or in a dedicated plug&play hardware platform between the camera control unit and the display (RDBox).

FEATURES:• Patent pending calibration solution and system for correcting the radial distortion in medical endoscopy
ADVANTAGES:• Improves depth perception at 5% the cost of 3D endoscopy• Applies to any MIS procedure independently of probe size• Can be used with newly purchased or existing camera systems
• Dramatically improves the perception of depth and relative distance. • It has been proved that improves surgical performance
• It neither requires replacing the endoscopy equipment nor changing the existing surgical routine

Minimally Invasive Surgeries (MIS) are very difficult to execute
Current solutions• One player in the market• Only for laparoscopy• High cost (>$125k)• Change in surgical routine (glasses)
3D (stereo) endsocopy
Limiting factors
• Long learning curve (≥ 5 y. )
• 8% of trainees unable to make the visual-space leap• 60% of errors in MIS are due to perception issues.
Only 25% of surgeons perform MIS
• Radial Distortion(RD): Small size of optics cause aberration and low depth perception• RD limits efficiency of procedures
• Investment opportunity: €125K (now) + €300k (month 12)
• Payback: ~ 4 years
• NPV (10.05 discount rate, Y6): €1.9M-1M€
