Last week’s 2025 Nerve Course at Duke University Medical Center reminded us why hands-on, interdisciplinary training is so powerful. With 28 trainees and 8 faculty in the room, the energy was equal parts curiosity and practical exchange, tips, tricks, and real conversations that transcend institutional silos. From medical students to fellows, everyone leaned in.
Our team brought SurgiSight™, our wearable 3D digital microscope, for live practice. The takeaways were candid and encouraging:
Comfort that held up across lengthy sessions
Easy to use, even for first-time users without loupe experience
Faster prep than traditional microscopes with no draping required
Universal and intuitive across experience levels
“Having Duke University join us in our initial launch is both a tremendous honor and responsibility. Duke’s leadership in embracing new technology reflects a shared goal: equip surgeons with tools that elevate skill, enhance surgeon ergonomics, and ultimately improve patient care.“
The Tech Behind the Experience
SurgiSight™ is designed around the surgeon, bringing a crisp, full-color 3D view to eye level so clinicians can operate head-up, hands-free, and focused. It’s the world’s first wearable, 3-D, high-definition surgical microscope, built to transform real-time visualization and support safer, more precise surgery.
Key details surgeons care about:
2×–8× digital magnification with 3D, HD 1080p imaging for depth and detail
Integrated LED headlight and variable working distance (38–83 cm) to adapt to the field, without awkward repositioning
Up to 3 hours battery life and on-demand controls to ensure efficient workflow
Under the hood, our platform integrates patented 3D lossless 2-8x magnification. Future enhancements will enable connectivity into the broader surgical ecosystem (eg. displaying external digital inputs such as 3D laparoscopy, robotics) as well as driving third-party AR/VR applications so teams can capture data, teach, and collaborate more effectively.
