4 SAMPLE CONTENTS FOR A CONVERGENCE SCENARIO SAMPLE OUTPUT Haptic-enabled Remote Surgeries Convergence Description Technology Readiness Level Key Initiatives Recent Patenting Trends for Convergin Technologies (Cumulative) Key Funding Recent Technology Trends What are the key market challenges? Key Market Opportunities Upcoming Trends Key Innovators Strategic Partnerships are Key to Deliver XaaS Telesurgeries Pay-per-usage and Subscription-based Payment to Deliver Haptic-enabled Remote Surgeries Outcome-focused care delivery through XaaS-focused business model Haptic-enabled Remote Surgeries Haptics Surgical Robots Surgical Robots Artificial Intelligence TECHNOLOGY READINESS LEVEL 5G Networks Artificial Intelligence XaaS Haptics Frost & Sullivan envisions a scenario where operating rooms in hospitals are equipped with surgical robots that help Surgeons receive haptic feedback from eperts remotely connected through 5G network. Embedded with artificial intelligence solution, the surgical robots indicate surgeons to analyze the patient's clinical data via a cloud -based platform, thereby improving the precision of surgery through the adoption of an everything -as -a -service (XaaS )-based care delivery model. + 5G Networks + XaaS Haptic-enables Remote Surgeries for Hospitals KEY INITIATIVES Telelap ALF -X developed by SOFAR, Italy features haptic feedback, allowing surgeon to feel tissues being manipulated during surgeries. Google partnered with Johnson & Johnson s medical device company, Ethicon, to develop a surgical robot that uses artificial intelligence. Many large IT companies such as Microsoft, Verizon, Philips, and AT&T have launched cloud -based healthcare services that are being rapidly adopted by hospitals globally. 2 Key Strategy Questions
