Synaptive Operator Cart Concept
A redesign of Synaptive’s Guide Operator Cart.
The existing cart used a laptop as the central computer running Guide software. As the software was developed to increase functionality the laptop became underpowered. Additional input/output connection were also needed so a complete redesign was the only solution.

A full-size appearance and ergonomics model was built to evaluate form and perform formative usability testing. The model was height adjustable, had functioning drawers, and a movable monitor. It was sent to a partner hospital where representative users provided essential feedback.

Modus V
The Modus V device, a robotic arm equipped with a high-resolution camera and light source, was the source of the Operator Cart’s form. Modus V was developed first so the Operator Cart was essentially a line extension product.
