Development und design of a multifunctional Laparoscope
Most of the currently existing tools have exactly one function and are single use devices. Therefore, we conceptualized a multifunctional, multiuse laparoscopic device. Are you excited to build things that matter?
Keywords: Laparoscope, multifunctional, medical engineering
This project results from first hand experiences of surgeons during their work with laparoscopic devices in the OR. While using the existing laparoscopic tools, we have discovered so far untouched improvements to the existing functional principles.

You will be working on developing the key components of the laparoscopic device: tool change and insertion of the multifunctional laparoscope. After a detailed design phase with CAD (Solid Works), your development will be built, tested and evaluated.

You will get hands-on experience in developing and designing a surgical device while working together with young and highly motivated colleagues from engineering, medicine and research. By bringing in your ideas and expertise, you will be in charge for the design and function of the medical device. With your contributions you have the possibility by the end of your thesis to be part of a team launching a medtec startup. Finally, you’ll have a great sense of accomplishment, having contributed to building something completely innovative.
