Vuzix® Corporation, a leading supplier of Smart Glasses and Augmented Reality (AR) technology and products, announced that another leading hospital’s team of doctors is successfully using the Vuzix M400 Smart Glasses to facilitate patient care.

In recent Twitter posts (here and here) from the account of Johns Hopkins Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine, Drs. Nicholas Dalesio and Laeben Lester introduced the Vuzix M400 Smart glasses as part of a new program to provide secure hands-free telecommunication for training, monitoring patients and to conduct remote virtual rounds for adult patients in a newly converted ICU.

Wearing the Vuzix M400 Smart Glasses, clinicians are collaborating on appropriate medical treatments via video and audio streaming in real-time to remote audiences and experts, reducing exposure and conserving personal protection equipment during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“We are pleased to see the staff at the Johns Hopkins Hospital utilizing our M400 Smart Glasses to help them deliver remote training and monitor patients,” said Paul Travers, Vuzix President and Chief Executive Officer.
