Vuzix, on the other hand, has previously displayed glasses at the show in collaboration with partner services TeamViewer and Librestream.
The news of an extra substantial order for Vuzix Blade AR glasses from Medacta, which is introducing the NextAR AR platform for shoulder surgery, was also a pricing driver this week.
Medacta is expanding its presence in the United States and Europe in anticipation of rising demand for NextAR, the first FDA-approved surgical application for complete shoulder replacement.
The NextAR platform was created to help orthopedic surgeons work more efficiently. It was first deployed in mid-2021 and has since been utilized in over 200 operations.
The Vuzix Blade glasses, which allow augmented reality projection, are a key feature of this platform. The Vuzix goggles, according to Medacta, are the ideal fit: they are lightweight and entirely wireless, while yet being able to operate for the duration of an operation.
On May 10, 2022, Vuzix will release its first-quarter report. The firm is anticipated to remain upbeat as fresh eyeglasses orders continue to come in.
Simultaneously, Vuzix is developing a new generation of AR glasses that will perform far better than the 400th series. Their presentation has the potential to enhance VUZI quotations significantly.
VUZI’s shares dropped -8.94% to $5.40 at the end of the latest trading session. The company’s current market capitalization is $355.10 million, with 63.66 million shares outstanding.
