Startup aims to utilize Apple Vision Pro for mundane surgical tasks.
This story is about a British hospital using a $3,500 mixed reality helmet in surgery. The software by eXeX focuses on helping surgeons stay organized in the operating room. CEO Robert Masson discusses the need for improved organization in healthcare and how predictive analytics could revolutionize surgical care. The software provides a holographic guide for equipment and helps streamline processes, reducing stress and anxiety for the surgical team. The use of headphones in surgery allows for contact-free interaction with digital screens and holograms, improving efficiency without compromising sterility. Surgeons may not use headphones directly, but the technology offers new possibilities for healthcare organization and efficiency.
