Problem
Orthopedic surgeons often rely on manual techniques and limited visual cues during procedures, leading to variability in implant placement and longer operative times. The lack of real-time, patient‑specific guidance can increase the risk of errors and affect postoperative outcomes.
Solution
PolarisAR delivers a mixed‑reality surgical guidance system that projects precise, patient‑specific anatomical information directly onto the operative field. Using spatial computing, the platform overlays 3D models, alignment cues, and critical measurements in real time, allowing surgeons to make informed decisions without diverting attention. The system is portable and integrates with existing operating‑room equipment, providing a seamless, intuitive experience that feels like an extension of the surgeon’s own skill set. By delivering robot‑like precision through visual augmentation, PolarisAR aims to reduce variability, shorten procedure duration, and improve patient outcomes.
Target Audience
Primary customers are orthopedic surgeons and orthopedic surgery departments in hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers seeking enhanced intra‑operative navigation and precision.
Features
- Mixed‑reality head‑up display that projects 3D anatomical models and alignment guides onto the surgical site
- Real‑time, patient‑specific data integration from pre‑operative imaging for accurate intra‑operative navigation
- Portable hardware that attaches to standard operating‑room setups without extensive infrastructure changes
- Intuitive, hands‑free interface controlled by voice or gesture, enabling surgeons to maintain focus on the procedure
- Automated precision metrics and alerts that highlight deviations from planned implant trajectories
