Proud to see Vega in the cath lab
X Robotics announced at TCT2026 that its humanoid robot, Vega, was used as a circulating assistant in a simulated cardiac catheterization laboratory at Mayo Clinic. The robot demonstrated stent and catheter retrieval in approximately 10 seconds and completed full table setup in 3.5 minutes without safety stops. This demonstration was accompanied by a paper published in EuroIntervention.
