Medical & Healthcare Robotics Summit 2026

The Medical & Healthcare Robotics Summit is a one-day online conference taking place on 16 September 2026, hosted by SAE International and delivered through the RingCentral Events platform. Free to join from anywhere, it gathers engineers, clinicians, researchers and medtech product leaders around the technologies driving robotics and autonomous systems in healthcare — from surgical and rehabilitation robots to bio-inspired devices, real-time motion tracking and adaptive control.

The confirmed speaker line-up gives a clear sense of the level of discussion, anchored by university researchers working on autonomous systems and bio-inspired medical robots alongside industry and editorial voices from the medical-design community. The blend reflects the summit's intent: to connect engineering innovation with real-world clinical impact rather than dwell on theory alone. As a virtual, no-cost event with a compact agenda, it suits busy professionals who want a concentrated update on where healthcare robotics is heading without travel. Attendees should expect technical talks and forward-looking discussion of autonomy, safety and the integration of intelligent systems into patient care, alongside the networking that the platform's online format supports. For clinicians, robotics engineers, AI researchers and regulators who rarely share a room, it is an accessible bridge across the disciplines that medical AI and robotics depend on.
