KIMA is our next-generation medical-grade robotic arm designed specifically for operating room environments and a wide range of healthcare applications, from diagnostics to surgery.
Operating rooms and clinical environments often rely on multiple robots, advanced medical devices, and clinical equipment that must coexist within space-constrained environments. Every KIMA component is engineered to optimize volume, weight, and form factor, helping maximize workspace efficiency while integrating seamlessly into medical solutions.
Building a unified robotic solution often requires managing multiple systems and complex interfaces from different providers. KIMA is designed to provide partners with flexible and efficient ways to interact with its components, helping simplify integration and reduce development lead times.
The cost and time associated with medical certification can significantly impact development timelines and time-to-market for healthcare solutions. KIMA is designed specifically to support the certification process of your system, helping simplify development while addressing the demanding safety requirements of medical environments.
KIMA takes a different approach from traditional medical robotic systems: it is built from the ground up to meet the demanding requirements of healthcare and operating room environments, where precision, reliability, and compliance are essential.
KIMA combines an ultra-compact form factor, a flexible integration architecture designed for seamless OEM integration into medical solutions, and a robotic control ecosystem supported by actuators and control libraries.

Build your medical Robotics future with KIMA
Kinova was founded on a simple but powerful idea: robotics should expand human potential. Inspired by assistive technologies developed to help family members living with muscular dystrophy, co-founder and CEO Charles Deguire helped transform that vision into a Canadian robotics company with a global presence, focused on building technologies that empower people and advance medical innovation.
As an ISO 13485-certified medical device manufacturer for more than a decade, Kinova brings extensive experience in developing technologies that meet the demanding requirements of healthcare applications. Today, that same philosophy drives KIMA, a new generation of medical-first robotic systems designed for the future of surgical robotics.
