Medical Robotics – Choice of Programming Language
summary
Striker’s Mako system combines a robotic arm, camera and guidance card, uses 3D CT planning and haptic boundaries to keep bone cuts within the planned zone and claims sub‑millimeter precision for implant alignment. Low‑level, real‑time control and hardware‑library integration run in C++ (C++17/20), while fast prototyping and AI/ML modules use Python with simple C++ bindings; the stack mixes languages so high‑performance control works and research/visualization iterates quickly.
