Use your existing devices

Help Lightning runs on your existing mobile devices (iOS, Android) or a web-browser on laptop and desktop computers.

Surgeons can now provide remote assistance as though they’re working side-by-side. They can telestrate, freeze images, use hand gestures, and even add real objects into the merged reality environment.

Be there instantly

Help Lightning is easy, fast and intuitive.

Once you’re in a merged reality call with a colleague or customer, simply tap the mode to change how you interact. Choose whether you’re giving or receiving help, and start collaborating in seconds. Help Lightning’s unique Merged Reality can add missing visual cues, gestures, and non-verbal communication methods to any session.

Using Help Lightning with smart surgical glasses

Take Help Lightning to the next level by pairing it with smart glasses. This innovation allows the wearer to benefit from the assistance of AI or a third-party while performing surgery. When used in conjunction with Help Lightning, smart glasses mean that another surgeon can see exactly what you are seeing and what you’re doing – and also have their hands superimposed over your field of view.

There are a number of models available from different manufacturers including VUZIX, Zebra, and RealWear.

Our Mission Statement

A leader in high-tech computerized diagnostic and treatment methods, Weill Cornell Medicine Neurological Surgery receives patients from around the world at our facilities in New York City. Our specialists treat the full spectrum of neurological disease, from brain and spine tumors, stroke, aneurysms, and epilepsy to Parkinson's disease and other movement disorders. Through our international programs, we train and support neurosurgeons and other healthcare providers in low- and middle-income countries around the globe. Our Neurosurgical Project in Tanzania is a well-developed, robust program that includes annual in-person training in country as well as a yearlong global fellowship in Dar es Salaam and ongoing video consults throughout the year. Local surgeons also visit New York for several months at a time to train here with top neurosurgical experts, then bring that training home with them.
