Company Overview
Illuminant Surgical is a medical technology company that develops surgical navigation systems. Its main product, Skylight™, is a platform that uses artificial intelligence, computer vision, and dynamic projection mapping to display anatomical images from medical scans directly onto a patient's skin in real-time. This technology aims to provide surgeons with 'x-ray vision' without the need for headsets or external monitors, thereby improving precision and workflow efficiency during procedures. The company is initially focusing on applications in spine surgery, pain management, and interventional radiology. Founded in 2021 by Stanford alumni Eldrick Millares and Dr. James Hu, Illuminant Surgical is a graduate of the Y Combinator accelerator program and has received grant funding from the National Science Foundation. The company is headquartered in Culver City, California.
