Yokne'am Illit, Israel

Augmedics is developing xvision, an augmented reality system that allows surgeons to fully focus on what they see inside a patient's anatomy without having to look away at a monitor. The system makes vital, real-time information available to the surgeon in an intuitive manner with no external distractions. The xvision system provides clear visualization and surgical navigation of each and every one of the spinal vertebra. As such, the system is especially beneficial in surgeries for degenerative spine issues, correction of spinal deformity, tumor resection, and general spinal trauma cases. The xvision system is invaluable in surgical workflow management and can also reduce stress in the working environment. The xvision system utilizes an array of sensors and collects surgical information which, when connected to a big data system, will analyze and process the data, using profound learning algorithms to provide alerts and suggestions to assist the surgeon during the procedure. In December 2019, Augmedics received FDA 510(k) clearance and launched the xvision system.
