Cloud robotics simulation for surgical training and research. Expanding access through simulation.
MRPX Technologies provides cloud-accessible robotics simulation environments. Our platform enables researchers, students, and developers to train, test, and experiment with robotic systems without requiring physical hardware or complex local infrastructure.
Robotics applications span many domains—from lunar exploration robots and underwater robotics to industrial automation and medical systems. Our focus is on medical robotics and surgical robotic systems, similar in concept to platforms like the da Vinci surgical system. Access to surgical robotics hardware is limited, and we aim to expand access through simulation for training, research, and education.
By hosting simulation environments in the cloud, MRPX allows users to run experiments from any device with a browser—no installation required. This lowers barriers for researchers, students, and teams exploring surgical robotics training and custom robotic systems.
The founder has roughly ten years of experience working in aerospace engineering environments, supporting complex systems. This background informs MRPX's approach to building reliable, accessible simulation infrastructure for robotics research and training.
