Fuyee Medical

Founded in 2021 by Dr. Liu Ning, a researcher with extensive experience at Imperial College London, Fuyee Medical focuses on developing anthropomorphic dual-arm surgical robots for microsurgical applications. The company targets procedures in the head and neck region where precision requirements exceed human manual capabilities.

Company Overview

Fuyee Medical (馥逸医疗) operates from Shanghai with a mission to overcome the limitations of human hands in microsurgery. The founding team brings technical expertise from Imperial College London’s robotics research programs, with accumulated innovations in surgical robotics, micro-nano systems, perception and cognition, and precision mechatronics.

The company maintains close collaboration with Shanghai Jiao Tong University’s Medical Robotics Research Institute, supporting fundamental research and brain-computer interface development projects. This academic partnership helps translate engineering innovations into clinical applications.

Core Products

Akso Microsurgical Teleoperation Robot System

Akso serves as Fuyee Medical’s flagship product, designed for microsurgical procedures in the head and neck region. The system addresses clinical challenges associated with high-precision requirements, limited surgical fields, and elevated procedural risks.

The robot consists of a patient-side execution unit and a physician-side console. Through master-slave operation, surgeons control microinstruments with enhanced precision. Key specifications include:

• 2.5mm micro-instruments with articulated wrist joints
• Capability to perform 0.5mm microvascular suturing
• Pistol-shaped instrument design for multi-instrument operation through small incisions
• Integrated high-magnification exoscope carried by the central arm

The system’s anthropomorphic design mimics the surgeon’s eyes (exoscope), arms (bilateral multi-DOF robotic arms), and wrists (articulated instrument tips). This unified control architecture enables coordinated operation for ultra-precise microsurgical tasks.

Dual-Arm Hair Transplant Robot

Leveraging core technologies from the Akso platform, Fuyee Medical has developed a specialized system for hair transplant procedures. The robot addresses challenges in traditional hair transplantation including subjective follicular unit estimation, prolonged surgical duration, and dependence on operator experience.

The hair transplant robot has completed type testing and targets follicular unit extraction procedures.

Technology & Innovation

Fuyee Medical’s anthropomorphic dual-arm control—scaling surgeon movements down to 0.5mm microvascular suturing—targets neurosurgical corridors where conventional robotic arms cannot reach.

Fuyee Medical’s technical platform centers on macro-micro controlled humanoid dual-arm robotics. The approach combines:

• Motion scaling to translate large surgeon movements into precise micro-movements
• Tremor filtration to eliminate the approximately 100-micron natural hand tremor
• Force sensing for feedback during delicate tissue manipulation
• Unified control systems enabling coordinated dual-arm operation

The pistol-shaped instrument design represents a departure from conventional robotic surgical instruments, enabling operation in deep, narrow surgical corridors where traditional bulky arms would obstruct the surgical field or limit depth access.

Clinical Applications

Akso targets several microsurgical applications:

• Neurosurgical procedures requiring sub-millimeter precision
• Vascular anastomosis and reconstruction
• Nerve repair and reconnection
• Lymphatic vessel surgery
• Complex head and neck procedures

The system’s design philosophy emphasizes human-robot collaboration, preserving space for manual intervention when needed during procedures.

Development Status

Both products remain in development stages:

The company works with clinical partners through joint research centers to ensure developed technologies address actual clinical needs.
