“I have worked together with Techna on our Surgery Augmented Reality for the past 3 years. We have built a great multidisciplinary team combining the expertise of our engineers and surgeons. Together we have come from just a few simple ideas to now a solid platform for augmented reality in surgery applications. From this platform we will be able to launch different projects as we aim to enhance education, training and clinical procedures with augmented reality applications.
