SWIIFT Imaging is a deeptech healthcare company that has developed a groundbreaking haptic robotic platform, named HAPTUS. Their solution enables radiologists to perform ultrasound exams remotely, in real time, with image quality equivalent to a traditional exam. The technology, already robust and scalable, provides a unique sense of tactile feedback to the radiologist as they exert pressure on the patient’s body, replicating the motion as if the patient were physically present. With no latency in movement, HAPTUS can deliver high-quality care worldwide, even with a simple 4G connection.

A wide range of use cases can be addressed, from cardiology to musculoskeletal imaging and obstetrics and gynecology, making ultrasound a valuable first-line diagnostic tool, particularly in emergency departments. HAPTUS sets a new standard for making ultrasound accessible anywhere in the world, especially in underserved areas. For radiologists, it also represents an opportunity to generate additional revenue by expanding the number of patients they can reach, at times that suit their schedule.
