Develop a surgical robot that 'understands' the voice and gestures of the surgeon
 A research group at the Andalusian Institute of Advanced Automation and Robotics
 (IAR) has developed an autonomous robot that serves as an assistant in minimally 
invasive surgery, using a camera and an arm that helps the specialist maneuvers such
 as suturing.
 Named for CISOBOT, the controller is adapted to the surgeon, by identifying the
 movements and gestures in an automated way. It uses a statistical algorithm that 
computes the best response to model maneuvers that have been registered previously 

in the memory of the machine
