Mixed reality

This year, using mixed reality to complement 3D printing applications will continue to gain momentum. As hardware capabilities advance further and specialized software applications become more widely available, the potential of these technologies multiplies. Additionally, the increasing affordability in devices consequently increases accessibility, meaning we'll see a boost in the adoption not only for training purposes and visualizing clinical cases but also to support the rapid prototyping of devices and possibly even aid surgeons in the operating room.

Another impact brought on by the immersive nature of advanced visualization is the enhancement of communication and collaboration. For example, using virtual reality on Materialise software in tandem with 3D printing provides a quick, affordable solution for remote planning.

We look forward to seeing what else 2022 will bring to personalized care. At Materialise, we're working hard to continue enhancing our technologies that make the world a better and healthier place.
