We look forward to continued collaboration between our two companies."Īs Chen alluded to in his quote, Vuzix has been here before. We are excited to begin realizing telehealth smart glasses applications from remote training on imaging technology (CTs, ultrasounds) and inserting IVs to telesurgery to AR-enhanced video visits. Telemedicine video conferencing through smart glasses from Vuzix is a natural progression from tablets and computers for our customers. "We feel very privileged now to be partnering with Vuzix with its mature smart glasses offerings. "While VSee previously worked with some early generation smart glasses solutions, the technology was not ready for telemedicine," VSee CEO Milton Chen said in a statement. It also exclusively powers video conferencing between Earth and the International Space Station.

And VSee, while something of a background player, is still a big name in telemedicine - its technology powers telemedicine offerings from MDLive, Walgreens, McKesson and a number of large healthcare systems like Ascension and and Sutter Health. Vuzix is generally considered to be one of the leaders in the AR glasses space, which has continued on since the consumer failure of Google Glass, albeit with a lower profile. Conversely, a medic or paramedic could be wearing the smart glasses while examining the patient, with the provider at the remote end directing and correcting." "For this initial solution, VSee will be offered as an telemedicine video app that can be purchased for doing secure, health-related video visits and consultations," a spokesperson told MobiHealthNews in an email. "For example, a provider wearing the smart glasses can use the telemedicine video app to do a live telesurgery procedure or ultrasound training.

The product will be a HIPAA-compliant software offering for Vuzix's M300XL and Vuzix Blade Smart Glasses, with potential applications for first responders, telesurgery and medical training. Smart glasses company Vuzix and telemedicine technology supplier VSee have teamed up to create a smart glasses offering for telemedicine, the two companies announced today ahead of the American Telemedicine Association conference.
