- Surgical-telementoring researchers and biomedical engineers
- Worth noticing
- A latency rig uses an ATmega328 and light sensors to measure glass-to-glass delay, from endoscope view to mentor screen.
Field notes
The research section separates the work into telementoring, latency measurement, bleeding monitoring and robot-assisted surgery. Magara’s profile also describes earlier practical work installing and servicing X-ray machines, dialysis units, autoclaves and chemistry analysers in Zimbabwe, alongside solar-power installations. The page lists research groups at UCT and links to publication records and papers.
