I was surprised to read your post. Doctors actually wear glasses during surgery and see patient data right away? It’s like the movie Iron Man, right?

Exactly, exactly. Wearing smart glasses like Vuzix allows you to instantly view information like the patient’s heart rate and blood pressure during surgery, and share the footage in real time with specialists at other hospitals. You can even use your hands to perform the surgery.

Wow… Then it would be great if emergency medical services could use something like that. On-site diagnosis, like in the movies?

That actually exists. Paramedics live-stream a patient’s condition through camera-equipped glasses, and hospital doctors can see the screen and provide immediate feedback, like, “Challenge the CPR angle a little more like this.” It’s almost like remote control.

The sports world is fascinating, too. I’m familiar with GoPros, but this is the first time I’ve heard of a camera with AI?

You’re talking about the Pivot system, right? That uses cameras and sensors to track movement, analyzing, for example, the angle of a baseball swing or the timing of a tennis serve in real time. It’s like having an AI coach right next to you, saying, “If you hit like that, you can’t go over the fence.”

Okay… If we combine this with VR later, we could have national team training courses at home, right?

That’s already slowly coming out. Combining camera-type wearables with AR/VR means your living room will soon become a training ground. And… you’ll have to work out too, no excuses, right?
