ARVIS® Augmented Reality Surgical Guidance Technology and Joint Replacement

1. There are three main components of joint replacement to consider.
   • The surgeon and surgery
   • The hardware replacement
   • The patient and rehabilitation
   • ARVIS® is an Augmented Reality or AR technology that assists the surgeon and surgical component of joint replacement.
2. Augmented Reality or AR is a technology that allows us to see our real-life environment with a digital augmentation overlay. AR is used in many ways including Snapchat filters, gaming and various shopping apps that allow the user to try on clothing or visualize furniture in their space before purchasing.
3. Orthopedic Surgical Guidance Technology can be used in surgery to aid the surgeon and help improve accuracy during joint replacement.
4. While multiple AR technologies on the market are retrofitted for surgery, ARVIS is the only AR technology designed specifically for both hip and knee joint replacement surgery in the United States.
5. ARVIS allows your surgeon to keep their eyes on you and the field of surgery because the technology is in the AR glasses they are wearing. Traditional robotic systems would require your surgeon to look at a monitor across the room.
6. ARVIS is more environmentally friendly than other technologies because there are fewer consumables or single-use plastic items that must be thrown away.
7. ARVIS is controlled by the surgeon, not a technician, keeping the surgeon in control and reducing the number of people required in the operating room.
