Planetary Resources expects that the Arkyd spacecraft will eventually be mass-produced at cost significantly lower than current spacecraft, so weight must be minimized to the greatest extent possible.

Vauxhall set out to introduce a modified process hanger with a new part that would be used to support each vehicle body throughout the production process. This part is a critical piece and had to perfectly fit both the machinery and the auto body to create correct clearances and avoid damage during production.

As clinical medicine is becoming focused more on patient safety and the quality of care, medical simulation has been proposed as a means to bridge the educational gap between the classroom and the clinical environment. Dr. Sandeep Ganni, the director of the GSL SMART Lab in India, envisioned a world-class surgical and medical training center where physicians and healthcare professionals could learn skills through simulation training and aimed at remodeling the approach toward patient safety and healthcare in India. He was looking for different simulators for different specialties to provide both basic and advanced simulation training.

Due to the increased awareness of patient safety and evolving technology, Fundacio Puigvert saw the need for virtual reality simulation in their residency and postgraduate training programs. They wanted a simulator that could replicate the hardware and software of the robotic Da Vinci console used in the operating room.

The orthotics and prosthetics (O&P) industry is dominated by manual craftsmanship, making it difficult to replicate good outcomes and achieve standardization.

Decathlon, the world’s largest sporting goods retailer, wanted to find a cost-effective solution for producing safety glasses components without the expense of tooling.

Physicians required training on new robotic surgery techniques for prostatectomy and other skills and procedures.
