NuEyesMark Gregot, co-founder, and CEO, NuEyes, wanted to create augmented reality (AR) smart glasses for people who have low vision or are vision impaired. Four years later, the NuEyes smart glasses are built on the ODG R-7 platform with $1.2 Million in investment from angel investors under their belt. With the advances in technology, VR, AR and artificial intelligence (AI) will create entirely new applications in healthcare. But instead of waiting for the future, there are already healthcare organizations using VR to improve the everyday lives of people like Felix. "We're using VR for the sheer experiential value of creating these immersive 360-degree experiences," said Greg Smith, CEO, Maplewood Senior Living.
