In this episode, we explore how enabling technologies — connectors, sensors, and ruggedized electronic architectures — are redefining what robotic systems can safely and reliably achieve. From maintaining signal integrity during delicate microsurgery to delivering durable performance through repeated sterilization cycles, we examine the engineering challenges that make precision possible. Michael Klitze, Senior Principal Architect at TE Connectivity, shares how advances in interconnect density, force sensing, and system integration are shaping the future of surgical and assistive robotics.
