Augmedics announced FDA 510(k) clearance of X2, its next-generation AR headset for use with the xvision Spine System.
The proprietary X2 headset is purpose-built for surgery. The all-new form factor is designed to maximize comfort, balance, and wearability in the operating room. X2 features a detachable, surgical-grade headlight and novel lens tilt to support surgeon ergonomics for standing and seated procedures.
X2 is also outfitted with enhanced technical and optical specifications to augment the surgical experience. The transparent AR display features a 100% increase in field of view and image resolution with improved brightness relative to its predecessor. With a high-performance processor and more power-efficient design, X2 builds on Augmedics’ first-generation headset to deliver advanced augmented reality visualization.
“Augmedics was a pioneer in the field with the first AR guidance system to be used in surgery. We have continued to be a leader in the space with more than 12,000 patients treated with our first-generation technology,” said Augmedics President & CEO Paul Ziegler. “With that foundation established, we’re entering a new era in Augmedics history. X2 is a significant step forward and represents a proprietary platform for long-term procedural innovation.”
