I was expecting to see something more interesting. Looks like he basically just used it to float a monitor and Apple Notes over the patient. Which surgeons usually just do with a LCD display and a VESA mount arm on the ceiling.
I guess the cool thing is that you don’t need to touch a display. It’s all hands free and super sterile. That said, it’s not doing anything that you can’t do now for 1/4the the cost.
Maybe true, but even at $3500 the Vision Pro would be about the cheapest thing in the operating theater anyway.
Except that they only allow one account right now, and you’d need one for each surgeon.
You could simply have an OR account, could preload all scheduled notes and bobs your uncle, its also viable as a personal purchase.
Multi users is a known pain in the ass with VisionOS 1.x. A lot of the device gets calibrated to the wearer’s eyes, and without proper multi account support, switching is a pain in the butt. Which is why there is a janky guest user mode.
