Vicarious Surgical raises $10m more

Vicarious Surgical has raised another $10 million for the virtual reality-augmented robot-assisted surgery platform it’s developing, according to an SEC filing.

The latest round of funding follows on the heels of a  nearly $17 million round announced in April 2018. Charlestown, Mass.-based Vicarious first reported a $2.4 million raise in January 2016 and another $800,000 in October of that year.

Vicarious has said its device “combines virtual reality with proprietary human-like surgical robotics to enable surgeons to perform minimally invasive surgery through a single micro-incision,” claiming to have achieved “the goal of surgical robotics since the field’s inception – to shrink the surgeon and put them inside the patient.”

Its website lists Khosla Ventures, AME Cloud Ventures, and Innovation Endeavors as investors. The company did not identify the names of investors for the current round.
