The Mission
Pixee Medical builds computer-vision navigation systems for orthopedic surgery, with Knee+ as a head-mounted AR device that provides real-time 3D spatial guidance in the OR. By embedding visual tracking directly into a wearable headset rather than bulky external rigs, surgeons gain continuous situational awareness with mobility, ergonomics, and precision.
Vision Challenges
Operating rooms introduce extreme imaging constraints:
- Harsh surgical lighting causes sudden overexposure and glare.
- Reflective instruments and bone reduce tracking stability.
- Real-time performance is mandatory for surgical safety.
- The headset must remain compact, lightweight, and thermally stable.
The Solution: Built with OAK
Pixee integrates a Luxonis OAK camera into the head-mounted tracking device to capture high-quality imagery and support real-time 3D localization of surgical instruments. The OAK handles imaging and exposure control before data flows into Pixee's tracking platform, improving stability under harsh lighting.
Why Luxonis
Pixee Medical selected Luxonis for reliable imaging in a compact, wearable form factor.
High performance-to-price ratio delivers strong imaging without bulky rigs.
Compact, lightweight hardware fits cleanly into a surgical headset.
Stable exposure control improves tracking in high-glare environments.
Proven reliability supports the transition from prototypes to clinical scale.
Luxonis enabled Pixee Medical to deliver precise, real-time surgical navigation in a wearable device trusted by surgeons.
