Global Competitive Landscape of Surgical Robotics Companies

North America remains the largest and most mature market for surgical robots, accounting for approximately 60–65% of the global market^[3].
Intuitive Surgical maintains a significant installed base in soft-tissue robotics, particularly with increasing penetration in general surgery areas such as gallbladder, appendix, and colorectal procedures. In orthopedics, Stryker, Zimmer Biomet, and Smith+Nephew compete intensely in knee and hip replacement robotics, offering hospitals multiple options.

China has become one of the fastest-growing key regional markets for surgical robots worldwide.
According to Frost & Sullivan, the total Chinese surgical robotics market is expected to reach RMB 22.45 billion in 2026, and RMB 70.85 billion by 2030, representing a CAGR of 33.3%^[8,9]. In 2025, domestic laparoscopic surgical robots surpassed imported systems in quantity for the first time in public tenders.
Notable Chinese surgical robot companies include MicroPort MedBot (Toumai), Jingfeng Medical (MP1000, CP1000), Tinavi (Tianji orthopedic robot), and Cornerstone Robotics (Sentire).

Other Countries and Regions

In Europe, Germany, the UK, France, and Italy are the most active adopters of surgical robots. Market research generally identifies these countries as the main sources of market growth in Europe. 

Overall, the global surgical robotics market is forming a multi-layered competitive landscape: on one level, global surgical robot companies compete internationally; on another, international and local brands contest emerging markets such as Asia; additionally, there is intense competition across different price ranges and clinical specialties. This competitive landscape is likely to continue evolving over the next few years.

The Future of Surgical Robotics: Exploring Advanced Supply Chains and Manufacturing at 2026 Medtec

A category-defining upgrade for the front door — much like how Tesla redefined automotive energy, the V150 Plus introduces a new era of low-maintenance, eco-conscious home access with solar power, 3D face recognition, and AI-powered curved fingerprint sensor technology

SAN FRANCISCO, June 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- DESLOC, a global smart lock brand backed by DESMAN's 17 years of engineering experience and trusted by nearly 10 million families worldwide, today announced that the DESLOC V150 Plus, the world's first low-light self-charging solar smart lock, is now live on Kickstarter.

Within the first one hour of launch, the campaign attracted strong early momentum and reached 100% funding from early adopters eager to support the next generation of low-maintenance smart home security, and within 48 hours, this campaign has already attracted interest from more than 300 people and raised over $200,000, exceeding its crowdfunding goal by 2,339%.

The V150 Plus brings a Tesla-like upgrade to the front door, delivering a generational leap for the smart lock category by rethinking one of its most fundamental challenges: power. While smart locks have transformed the way people access their homes, most still depend on batteries that need to be replaced, recharged, or constantly monitored.

Powered by an integrated perovskite solar panel, the V150 Plus converts light into energy to help recharge its removable 10,000 mAh battery, even in low-light and shaded entryway conditions. Combined with DESLOC's intelligent energy management system, the lock is designed to reduce battery maintenance while supporting a lower-waste, more environmentally friendly smart home experience.

"The next major smart home upgrade may not be another app feature — it may be a new power source," said Mark Dong, CEO at DESLOC Smart Lock. "With V150 Plus, we are bringing a Tesla-like moment to the front door: a shift toward smarter, lower-maintenance, and more sustainable home access powered by light."

From Battery Anxiety to Solar Self-Charging

For many homeowners, the biggest concern with smart locks is not how to unlock the door — it is whether the lock has enough power when they need it most. The V150 Plus shifts the conversation from "How do I unlock my door?" to "Why does my lock still need charging?"

By integrating solar replenishment directly into the lock, DESLOC aims to give homeowners a more dependable and lower-maintenance way to secure their homes. The self-charging design can also help reduce the need for frequent battery replacement and manual charging, supporting a more environmentally friendly smart home experience and helping lower battery waste over time.

For homeowners, locksmiths, installers, and smart home professionals, the V150 Plus offers a more future-ready solution that combines renewable power, biometric access, and app-based control in a single connected lock.

The V150 Plus has already received recognition across leading technology, smart home, CES, and design award programs, including CES-related honors and the MUSE Design Award Gold Award, underscoring its position as one of the most innovative smart lock launches of the year.

Beyond Keys: Faster, Smarter Home Access

Beyond its solar-powered design, the V150 Plus combines multiple advanced access technologies in one connected lock.

The V150 Plus features 3D face recognition with liveness detection, enabling hands-free access while helping prevent spoofing attempts. It also includes DESLOC's curved-touch fingerprint sensor with AI fingerprint recognition algorithm, which recognizes in as fast as 0.15 seconds and adapts over time for improved recognition, even with weak or damaged fingerprints.

With built-in Wi-Fi, homeowners can monitor battery status, check lock activity, manage access, and control the lock remotely through the DESLOC App, without requiring an additional hub. The V150 Plus also supports voice assistant integration with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.

Bringing Self-Charging Smart Access to Early Adopters

The DESLOC V150 Plus Kickstarter campaign launched on June 25, 2026. During the first week, backers can secure V150 Plus for $199 (MSRP $399.99) and receive a free DESLOC C110 smart lock, limited to the first 500 backers who complete their payment.

More than another smart lock with additional access options, the V150 Plus represents a new energy logic for the front door — one where home access becomes smarter, easier to maintain, more environmentally responsible, and powered by self-charging solar technology.
