Computer-assisted surgery is a trending topic in research, with many different approaches which aim at supporting surgeons in the operating room. Existing surgical planning and navigation solutions are often considered to be distracting, unintuitive or hard to interpret. In this work, we address this issue with an approach based on mixed reality devices like Microsoft HoloLens. We assess the depth sensing capabilities of Microsoft HoloLens, and the potential benefit they could bring to computer-assisted surgery applications.

Abstract
Computer-assisted surgery is a trending topic in research, with many different approaches which aim at supporting surgeons in the operating room. Existing surgical planning and navigation solutions are often considered to be distracting, unintuitive or hard to interpret. In this work, we address this issue with an approach based on mixed reality devices like Microsoft HoloLens. We assess the depth sensing capabilities of Microsoft HoloLens, and the potential benefit they could bring to computer-assisted surgery applications.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
