As the article mentions we are all pretty much aware of the daVinci robot for many surgical procedures and now the university has some open source action taking place with research and will be providing a few other universities including Harvard and Johns Hopkins.  After distribution has been made to to all, the robots will be connected via the internet for data sharing and collaboration. 

The daVinci is not going away any time soon but through collaboration we might see some new innovation and research and the ability to share and perhaps create additional options for surgical robots.  BD
