Doctors in London hospitals are using headsets from Microsoft to reduce the amount of staff coming into contact with COVID-19 patients

A small number of London hospitals have given out 10 mixed-reality headsets to doctors as a way to reduce the amount of hospital staff coming into contact with COVID-19 patients.

Dr. James Kinross, a surgeon and lecturer who has been using the HoloLens for three years, told Business Insider what it's like to work with the headset as a doctor. struggled to provide staff in its National Health Service with adequate amounts of Personal Protective Equipment HoloLens comes with a piece of software called Remote Assist that works via Microsoft Teams to allow doctors to reduce the number of staff going out onto wards by essentially carrying a holographic image of their colleagues with them when they go on their rounds, rather than multiple doctors having to be on the same ward at once.

Junior doctors are kept in a COVID-isolated room and are able to see what a consultant is doing, communicate with them, and pull up relevant images and scans to project into their helmet. This method is also being used to teach medical students who are no longer allowed on the wards. "Once you're scrubbed up and you're sterile, you can't go and touch a computer to find out any further information that you need or you may want," Kinross pointed out. With the HoloLens however, that information can be pulled up and manipulated in virtual space.

"I've got to be able to communicate. And if my colleagues are not with me in the building, I need to be able to share information quite quickly," he said.strange and unnerving stories about hospital robots
