Veyond Metaverse Harnesses Extended Reality

Despite healthcare being a human right, adequate surgical services seem to be a luxury to a majority of the world’s population, with the The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery estimating that there are five billion people worldwide that lack access to safe, affordable surgical and anesthesia care when needed. Skilled surgeons are also in short supply, especially in isolated or developing areas.

Veyond Metaverse has created a platform, known as Veyond Connect, which uses Extended Reality (XR) to allow surgeons to collaborate surgeries remotely. XR encompasses a wide variety of technologies, such as augmented reality, virtual reality and mixed reality.
