Our mission
Our mission is to make precision orthopedic care accessible to every surgeon, in every OR, without the cost or disruption of traditional robotics. We do this by putting real-time augmented reality guidance directly into surgeons’ hands, adapting to their existing workflow instead of asking them to change it.
Knee+ NexSight was built to deliver care that is accurate, efficient, intuitive, universally accessible, and cost-effective. So more surgeons, more techniques, and more high-volume medical centers can benefit from precise, personalized guidance, and more patients can return to movement with confidence.
