Nice link, Thanks
Total revenue increased by 19% to $3.7 billion for the year ended December 31, 2018 , compared with $3.1 billion for the year ended December 31, 2017 . Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2017 , increased by 16% compared with $2.7 billion for the year ended December 31, 2016 . The increase in total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2018 , reflects 20% higher instrument and accessory revenue driven by approximately 18% higher procedure volume, 21% higher systems revenue, and 11% higher service revenue.

Um Nope.
Alf Times are not even close to Laparscopic and if you don’t know how RASD procedures are timed (and you don’t) you really shouldn’t be arguing. Davinci tahbso takes 25 minutes.
Instead of a TRXC sponsored Vimeo pump, look at the data sofar Surgeons submitted during clinical trials.
The study titled: Total Laparoscopic (S-LPS) versus TELELAP ALF-X robotic-assisted hysterectomy: a case-control study
The results of this study were similar to the previous one. It was published in October 2016. For the ALF-X group, the median operative time was 147 minutes. For the standard laparoscopic group, the median operative time was 80 minutes. Procedures were performed without conversion in 94.3% of cases in the ALF-X group, and in all cases in the standard laparoscopic group. Again, conversions were only needed in the ALF-X group.
Early postoperative pain was significantly lower in the standard laparoscopic group. This makes sense, as the ALF-X causes more pain since it's a longer surgery, the Senhance instruments in a patient's body are ripping up more tissues and organs

The times are skin to skin in the NIH article, not just the cut times. If you want to compare apples to apples, Senhance total hysterectomy times are about the same. It will also depend on how many procedures the surgeon has under his/her belt with whatever system is being used. The surgeon in the video you posted is excellent as the instruments move like it is part of her body, and she can probably do origami with her skills.
For Senhance times, See https://vimeo.com/216529572 for example.
I agree wrt articulation, that the DV is more human like. However, with cables, you are limited on miniaturization and IMO Xi instruments are at limit. IMO Senhance articulation is good enough to address many procedures. DV will still be best for prostate, the other CEO has said so and stated in a conference call that if he had to undergo prostate resection, he would pick DV. The software change I wrote about is mostly regarding human motion vs lap motion.
