Founded in 2018 after developing medical AR systems since 2013, ARspectra designs and manufactures purpose-built augmented-reality glasses and solutions for healthcare professionals and MedTech partners. Based in Luxembourg with a U.S. presence, the company develops medical-grade systems that put imaging, navigation data, and remote guidance directly in clinicians’ fields of view rather than adapting consumer AR hardware. ARspectra says it has produced more than 20 research, regulatory-ready, and commercial platforms for real-world surgical environments and operates as a certified MedTech manufacturer.
