Several key technologies are developed thanks to SPIRITS for interventional radiology and more generally for hybrid image-guided surgery.

3D printing technologies and their combination: multimaterial polymer production and metal printing are being considered for manufacturing of robotic technology.
Hydraulic actuation, compliant mechanisms are considered altogether to design efficient robotic structures.
Instrumented surgical tools for precision increase in robotised tasks.
Tactile feedback technology for providing new information to the radiologist.

+* 3D printing technologies and their combination: multimaterial polymer production and metal printing are being considered for manufacturing of robotic technology.
-* It is proposed to combine 3D multimaterial polymer printing with hydraulic actuation and 3D printing of nitinol elements. All offer excellent compatibility with imaging devices. Their combination, newly considered, will allow the design of new robotic structures and actuation means.
+* Hydraulic actuation, compliant mechanisms are considered altogether to design efficient robotic structures.
+* Instrumented surgical tools for precision increase in robotised tasks.
-* It is proposed to combine design of needles and of needle driving system to compensate needle deflections and to make possible trajectory adjustment.
+* Tactile feedback technology for providing new information to the radiologist.

-* It is proposed to develop remote manipulation capability with haptic feedback using tactile feedback with sensory substitution.
