Kopin gets 2nd production order for CR3 from HMDmd

Kopin Corporation announced that it has received a second production order for the CR3 wearable surgical monitor from HMDmd. The CR3 is a lightweight, ergonomic head-mounted display HMD that provides 3-D imagery in full-HD resolution, while also being 4K video compatible. The CR3 is configured for use with 2-D and 3-D endoscopes and microscopes and is plug-in compatible with other surgical systems. “This second production order is a direct result of the positive feedback we received from the surgical equipment manufacturers who evaluated the CR3 HMD,” said Bill Maffucci, Kopin’s Senior VP of Business Development and Strategy. “We anticipate adoption rates to accelerate as more surgeons have the opportunity to evaluate the CR3.” The CR3 enables surgeons to maintain a constant high-resolution video of the surgical field while also being able to maintain full visual access to the operating room via a unique “look-down” capability. The CR3 also minimizes weight on the surgeon’s head and is extremely well-balanced to minimize head and neck strain.
