In the first webinar, Dr. John Fan, CEO of Kopin Corporation talked about past efforts to create AR/VR solutions and lessons learned from some of these high-profile efforts. You can view the recording of this webinar HERE or by visiting Kopin’s website at www.kopin.com
In part two, Dr. Fan will tackle the present state-of-the-art, profiling some interesting successes, and the key elements of those successes. He will pronounce that the tipping point has arrived in some markets and that we are fast approaching widespread adoption.
In part three, Dr. Fan will look to the future of AR/VR smartglasses, offering a roadmap to successful product development needed for the complete platform shift. In ten to fifteen years, this ecosystem can grow to a trillion-dollar market..
Note: each webinar requires a dedicated registration
Dr. Fan is uniquely qualified to present his vision of the AR/VR journey having worked to develop AR and VR solutions for 30 years, starting with Kopin’s pioneering work for DARPA on microdisplays and systems.
“Kopin has been an innovator in the AR/VR space for a long time and I have seen many successes and failures,” noted Dr. Fan. “So many elements must come together to offer a compelling AR or VR solution and we technologists can get too impatient or too aggressive in making the big leap. Or, we get lost in the lab working on individual separate pieces and lose track of the bigger picture. This webinar series is designed to take a step back from the technical details and look at AR and VR in a broader, more holistic, historical and aspirational perspective,” concluded Dr. Fan.

HMDmd to participate at BIOMEDevice 2019 in San Jose with Live Demonstration on Dec. 4.
Developing a Wearable Display for Surgeons (Live Demonstration)
Cameras and screens have been used to augment surgeons’ vision for years, enabling them to see magnified surgical sites for greater precision. But as helpful as on-screen technology can be, it can also be challenging ergonomically as surgeons struggle to operate comfortably while moving around to look at the screens. Working closely with surgeons, HMDmd. CEO John R. Lyon and Senior Vice President Allen Newman developed a medical-grade head-mounted wearable display that uses 3D and high-resolution OLEDs to improve visualization and ergonomics for surgeons during surgery. Both John and Allen will take a deep dive into their development journey, clinical utilization, and live demo of the display.
BIOMEDevice San Jose, Silicon Valley’s leading event for medtech professionals, will focus this year on digital health solutions and related technologies. Throughout the two-day event, a series of sessions, presentations, panels, and case studies will be presented by industry innovators and thought leaders, addressing healthcare’s growing convergence with digital technologies, how to accelerate these product’s speed-to-market, and finding the resources to scale. With the spotlight on digital health technologies including artificial intelligence, augmented and virtual reality, wearables, and much more, attendees will have the opportunity to learn from and network with the leading minds driving meaningful advancements in healthcare. BIOMEDevice San Jose will take place December 4 and 5 at the San Jose Convention Center in San Jose, CA.
