  • How AR Glasses Are Reshaping Prosthetic Limb Fitting

    How AR Glasses Are Reshaping Prosthetic Limb Fitting
    Jul 5 2026
    In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how augmented reality glasses are transforming the process of fitting prosthetic limbs. They focus on a pilot program at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, where occupational therapists use AR overlays to map residual limb topography, simulate socket pressure points, and adjust fit in real time — cutting fitting sessions from an average of six appointments down to two. The hosts discuss the specific technology: Microsoft HoloLens 2 running a custom app called SocketSense, developed in partnership with MIT Media Lab. They also touch on the broader implications for veteran care and civilian prosthetics clinics. A concrete look at a technology reducing both physical discomfort and logistical burden for amputees. #AugmentedReality #ARGlasses #Prosthetics #ProstheticLimbFitting #WalterReed #SocketSense #HoloLens2 #MITMediaLab #OccupationalTherapy #VeteranCare #Amputee #MedicalTech #HealthcareInnovation #ResidualLimb #3DScanning #PressureMapping #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How AR Glasses Are Quietly Reshaping Archaeological Digs

    How AR Glasses Are Quietly Reshaping Archaeological Digs
    Jul 4 2026
    Lucas visited an active dig site last month and saw archaeologists using AR glasses to overlay ancient structures onto bare dirt. In episode 91, he and Luna break down how spatial computing is changing excavation—from real-time 3D mapping to avoiding accidental destruction of fragile artifacts. They walk through a specific case: the Must Farm excavation in the UK, where AR cut mapping time by 40 percent and reduced accidental damage to Bronze Age textiles. Lucas explains the technical stack—LiDAR on the glasses, photogrammetry from drones, Unity-based visualization—and why this matters for a field historically resistant to digital tools. Luna pushes back on cost and battery life concerns. The episode ends with a forward-looking question: will AR replace traditional trowel-and-brush archaeology or just augment it? #AugmentedReality #ARGlasses #Archaeology #SpatialComputing #MustFarm #BronzeAge #DigitalArchaeology #LiDAR #Photogrammetry #Unity3D #ExcavationTech #CulturalHeritage #Fieldwork #3DMapping #Technology #TechPodcast #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

    How AR Glasses Are Quietly Reshaping Solar Panel Installation
    Jul 4 2026
    Episode 90 covers a specific case: a mid-size solar installation company in California that deployed AR glasses for its field crews in early 2026. We walk through how augmented reality overlays guide workers on roof layouts, wire routing, and panel alignment — and the data on time savings. Lucas shares numbers from a project manager he spoke with: install time dropped by about 18 percent after a four-week learning curve, with a 40 percent reduction in callbacks for rework. Luna digs into the practicality: do the glasses work in bright sunlight? What about safety regulations? The episode also touches on how the same tools are starting to be used for residential and commercial solar inspections. If you're curious how AR is moving from warehouses to rooftops, this is a good entry point. #ARGlasses #AugmentedReality #SolarEnergy #SolarInstallation #CleanTech #FieldService #WearableTech #RooftopSolar #ConstructionTech #LaborProductivity #CaliforniaSolar #RenewableEnergy #DigitalTwins #Training #Inspections #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How AR Glasses Are Quietly Reshaping Cardiac Surgery Planning

    How AR Glasses Are Quietly Reshaping Cardiac Surgery Planning
    Jul 3 2026
    Episode 89 dives into a specific, real-world use of augmented reality that most listeners haven't heard of: pre-surgical planning for complex congenital heart defects. Lucas and Luna walk through a case from Boston Children's Hospital, where surgeons used AR glasses to fuse 3D heart models with a patient's anatomy before a six-hour procedure. They discuss the specific technical challenge — depth perception in open-chest surgery — and how AR overlays reduced cognitive load for the surgical team. The hosts also touch on the data: a 2025 study showed that AR-assisted planning reduced graft revision rates by roughly 18 percent in pediatric cardiac cases. No futuristic hype — just the quiet, incremental way AR is changing one of the highest-stakes rooms in medicine. #AugmentedReality #ARGoggles #CardiacSurgery #MedicalAR #SurgicalPlanning #BostonChildrensHospital #CongenitalHeartDefects #3DHeartModeling #DepthPerception #CognitiveLoad #PediatricCardiology #GraftRevision #Technology #FexingoAR #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TechPodcast #ARinHealthcare Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
