VISUAL FIELD ANALYSIS

Diagnosis

We use the most modern eye tracking technology to perform a perimetric eye examination. We record the visual field and thus detect deficits.

VISION AID

Assistance system

Mixed reality glasses provide the patient with visual information and thus enhance the peripheral field of vision.

XR TELEPORTAL

Virtual examination room

A telemedicine portal promotes communication between patients, doctors, therapists and relatives.

Future

Research that creates new technologies

Health

better early detection than never

Mental Profit

for patients & doctors

Thanks to mixed reality, diagnostic tools are made more easily and quickly accessible to patients to promote early detection of the disease.

The technology is integrated into existing hardware to initiate an adaptation process that is as organic and harmonious as possible.

The XR glasses have a training function that allows the patient to train anywhere to better manage their condition.

By integrating artificial intelligence, eye movement patterns are identified to determine what the user is looking for.

With the virtual examination room, the patient saves themselves from arduous and avoidable visits to the doctor, while the allocated treatment time is maximized.
