Google Glass-Equipped Surgery (Video)

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 06/26/2013 07:13 AM | source: | 65 comment(s)

We have already been given a lot of chances to see how the world looks through the Google Glass. And now, Dr. Rafael Grossmann of the Eastern Maine Medical Center has shown how the high tech wearable computer could be very useful in healthcare by performing a Google Glass-equipped surgery. Grossmann says, "By performing and documenting this event, I wanted to show that this device and its platform, are certainly intuitive tools that have a great potential in Healthcare, and specifically for surgery, could allow better intra-operative consultations, surgical mentoring and potentiate remote medical education, in a very simple way". Grossmann did a gastrostomy, which is placing a feeding tube endoscopically, while live-streaming through his Glass and the images were displayed on an iPad as you will see in the video below. He had set up a Hangout, and the use of the Glass was with the patient's complete consent. Grossmann made sure that he wasn't recording or sending any identifying info of the patient.

Only if developers are, otherwise it maybe a waste of time.

I'll take it if it's free. Won't pay for it though.

Yea I have my doubts, unless its with the Omni treadmill then definitely NO! Apparently a lot of the people who tried it get mild to extreme motion sickness either whilst using it or after using it. Also unless I can use either a controller or a mouse and keyboard at my desk I will never ever use it. Even with the Omni they use a crappy light gun, and they are using Kinect 1 so its pretty limited in terms of sensor hardware.

Maybe Oculus 2 or 3 when they fine tune it even more and it won't cost an arm and a leg... and also a kidney to purchase. Heard rumors of just the basic headset costing around £900 and then Omni on top thats around £2000+ erm... no thanks.
