The use of AR glasses has started in factories, vehicle repair centers and even tanks. In Japan it is now used by emergency response teams (EMTs) in the field to provide the best possible first aid to patients.
A set of Vuzix M400 glasses is used by the Shunto Izu Fire Department's EMT team to allow doctors at the hospital to see patients before they arrive at the hospital. The doctor can then decide exactly what to do to save the patient's life upon arrival at the hospital without having to perform an examination first.
Doctors in the hospital can also see the patient's heartbeat and ECG before arriving at the hospital with the help of this AR set. This project was done as a test to see its effectiveness in providing early emergency aid to patients.
