  • Why Surgeons Are Wearing The Apple Vision Pro In Operating Rooms

    *Why Surgeons Are Wearing The Apple Vision Pro In Operating Rooms*

    Over the last month, Horgan and other surgeons at the University of
    California, San Diego have performed more than 20 minimally invasive
    operations while wearing Apple's mixed-reality headsets. Apple released the headsets to the public in February, and they've largely been a commercial
    flop. But practitioners in some industries, including architecture and medicine, have been testing how they might serve particular needs.

    Horgan says that wearing headsets during surgeries has improved his effectiveness while lowering his risk of injury-and could have an enormous impact on hospitals across the country, especially those without the means
    to afford specialty equipment. "This is the same level of revolution, but
    will impact more lives because of the access to it," he says, referring to
    his previous breakthrough in 2000.

    I'd prefer my surgeon to be concentrating on his work rather than
    playing silly games on his Apple Vision. :-\
