Voyager has been an inspiration for generations of engineers.
Bless you all that worked on it. Thank you.
Recently I designed in a Voyager inspired secret Easter egg into the surgical robot I designed. I put a gold (plated) plate with everyone's signature engraved on it. Gave everyone one as a surprise Christmas gift.
It's the Maestro from Moon Surgical, it's done over 200 surgeries, all successful. So far (no whammy) its had 100% reliability with the first 6 systems we built. We designed it (hardware wise) with only 3 engineers, including me, and we hand built the first ones right here in San Carlos, CA. The company is based in Paris and has a whole interesting history there as well.
No, but I worked on one of those too. I worked on J&Js ottava, its designed to compete with the one doing the grape surgury, Intuitive's Da Vinci. I've had the pleasure of using one (Da Vinci XI) to play around with, it's truly amazing.
