The device is operated externally. It can be inserted like an endoscope into hard-to-reach incisions and orifices, such as the rectum.

The device can reconstruct three-dimensional wounds inside the body, such as gastric wall injuries or damage and disease inside the colon.

It can mitigate mismatches between 3D-printed biomaterials and target tissues/organs, as well as structural damage during handling and transport.
