OPERATE WITH UNPARALLELED
CLARITY AND CONFIDENCE

We’re giving doctors x-ray vision.
Illuminant Surgical’s mission is to improve patient outcomes by giving doctors superpowers. We think the most powerful technology is the kind you don’t have to think about using. We use artificial intelligence, computer vision, and dynamic projection mapping to make image guided procedures seamless and accessible for all care settings and specialties.

REALITY.
AUGMENTED.

Introducing Skylight™
The first real-time anatomical projection system for spine surgery and interventional access – displaying imaging directly onto the patient to give you a view of what’s beneath the skin. With SkinMatch™ patient registration, Skylight™ simplifies your workflow and fits into any procedure room. Get started with just one day of training.

 

 

 

THE MOST POWERFUL TECHNOLOGY IS THE KIND YOU DON'T HAVE TO THINK ABOUT USING

Eliminate Spatial Uncertainty
Traditional navigation systems create a fundamental disconnect between the imaging you see and the intervention you’re performing. Surgeons must constantly shift attention between screens and patient, mentally translating 2D scans into 3D reality, introducing cognitive burden and uncertainty during critical moments. Skylight™ eliminates this challenge by projecting anatomical information directly onto the patient, creating a seamless integration of digital guidance and physical reality.

Simplify Your Workflow
Traditional navigation systems add significant complexity to spine procedures, with setup times often exceeding 30 minutes and requiring specialized technical support. This disruption extends beyond time: it requires invasive patient prep, fragments the surgical workflow, increases OR costs, and limits the number of patients that can be treated each day. Skylight™ has been designed for non-invasive setup within minutes.

Scale Beyond the Operating Room
Advanced navigation has been traditionally reserved for major medical centers due to prohibitive costs and space requirements. Skylight™ changes this paradigm with its compact footprint and wide applicability to pain management and interventional radiology. Skylight™ brings cutting edge visualization to facilities of all sizes, from university hospitals to ambulatory surgical centers and private specialty clinics, ensuring that practice size never limits surgical capability.
