**2.2 Advantages**

RAS enables more refined hand-eye coordination, superior suturing skills, better dexterity, and precise dissection. It is achieved by the characteristics of robotic surgical platforms that include motion scaling, greater optical magnification, 3D, and stereoscopic vision, increased articulated instrument tip dexterity, tremor filtration, operator-controlled camera movement, and elimination of the fulcrum effect [13], all of this translates into greater safety for patients and advantages for the surgeon.

Robotic instruments were specifically designed to mimic human wrist movements, allow 7 degrees of freedom of movement, and can be particularly advantageous for newborns, infants, and young children, as well as, certain hard-to-reach anatomical areas [29, 46]. By operating seated at the console, surgical fatigue and tremors are reduced [53].
