Oklahoma Patent of the Month – November 2025
Surgical precision is reaching a new level thanks to augmented reality (AR) technology designed to guide surgeons during complex procedures. U.S. Patent No. 12458467 describes innovative systems developed by XIRONETIC LLC for real-time, AR-aided implant placement. This breakthrough promises to improve surgical accuracy, potentially reducing operating times and enhancing patient outcomes in specialized areas. The invention establishes a new benchmark for precision in reconstruction.
Strong AR Guidance
This patented system, titled ‘Systems and methods for augmented reality-aided implant placement’, leverages computer vision to register preoperative plans directly onto the patient’s anatomy during surgery. Surgeons wear AR devices, seeing a highly accurate, dynamic overlay that shows the ideal position and orientation for implants. This digital guidance removes reliance on traditional, less precise alignment techniques. The result is consistently accurate positioning.
Transforming Complex Surgery
The technology is engineered to support demanding reconstructions. These include craniomaxillofacial, thoracic, and abdominal surgeries. By providing visual confirmation and precise navigation in the operative field, the system minimizes the potential for human error. It gives surgeons an instantaneous digital map. This ensures implants are placed exactly where they need to be, ushering in a new era of surgical certainty.
