The Ministry of Science and Technology's National Applied Research Laboratories (NARLabs), through the Satellite Technology Research Center (STRC) subsidy program, collaborated with the park-based company SURGLASSES on the "Smart Surgical Glasses Combined with Surgical Robot Liver Puncture Surgery Development Project." This collaboration aims to enhance the diverse development of the intelligent robot industry in NARLabs and promote the application of AI technology in the biomedical field. On the 26th, the "SURGLASSES Product Launch Event" was held at the NARLabs' Intelligent Robot Self-Manufacturing Base. This event aimed to leverage the energy of the satellite base to collectively promote the use of AI technology in the biomedical field.
Chen Ming-huang, Director of NARLabs, stated that the proportion of robot work tasks in various fields will gradually increase in the future. The 3D vision associated with this project is one of the key technologies. The smart medical glasses developed by SURGLASSES utilize MR mixed reality technology to assist surgeons with 3D visual devices during surgery.
In the coming year, NARLabs will implement the "Acceleration Plan for Medical Device Industry Innovation and International Upgrading - Accelerating the Innovation of the Biomedical Industry in Central Taiwan" to provide resources to assist the development of the minimally invasive medical device and smart auxiliary equipment industries.
Additionally, during the product launch event, students from Xihu Senior High School in Changhua County visited the venue. Chen Ming-huang emphasized that the NARLabs' Intelligent Robot Self-Manufacturing Base is a platform designed for young people. It continues to collaborate with major universities and colleges nationwide to promote the development of the intelligent robot industry and encourages everyone to make full use of the resources available at the base.
During the product unveiling, SURGLASSES CEO Wang Min-liang invoked the famous quote by Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, "stay hungry, stay foolish," to inspire visiting students. SURGLASSES 's proudest invention is the world's first Smart Orthopedic Surgery Glasses, which utilize MR (Mixed Reality) technology and compute camera positions to display X-ray images directly in front of surgeons' eyes. This advancement brings digital healthcare into the operating room, serving as a critical tool for advancing surgical procedures.
