Air Water / Kairos:

Kairos is an Air Water group company that manufactures and sells high-resolution 8K video medical equipment.

The 8K surgical video microscope system “Microeight” has been developed.

Sales will begin on September 2, 2019 (Monday).

Development history:

Kairos has commercialized an 8K rigid endoscope camera for the first time in the world.

In July 2018, Air Water made Kairos a subsidiary.

“Surgery microscope”:

The “surgical microscope” is indispensable for microsurgery (microsurgery) such as anastomosis * 2 of microvessels, nerves, and lymphatic vessels.

Today, it is rapidly expanding in the global medical device market.

Super microsurgery (analysis of microlymph vessels cut by cancer surgery) is beginning to be performed.

Kairos: 8K Surgical Video Microscope System “Micro eight”

Applying 8K video technology to achieve natural stereoscopic viewing without using 3D.
Combined with a 70-inch 8K large monitor, you can operate with your head up,
Provided to medical institutions that support plastic surgery, neurosurgery, cardiac surgery, etc.

Product features:

Visualizing the micron world: High-definition 8K video technology with 16 times the amount of information as HD (2K).

More difficult surgery and treatment can be performed safely.

Visualize 1/10 size subject of hair (70μm).
Fine observation up to cellular level
Such as microvascular and lymphatic anastomoses,
By exchanging the lens, it can be used for super microsurgery with high-definition images.

Stereoscopic and deep depth of focus:

The distance, angle, and light source between the 8K camera and the subject are precisely calculated and adjusted to the appropriate position.

Realized stereoscopic viewing of 8K high-definition images with a single eye.

8K high-definition images: Taking advantage of the “realism and realism”, a shadow is intentionally created to create a 3D effect (drop shadow effect)
Natural stereoscopic viewing without using 3D glasses
Depth of focus has also been successfully increased by tilting the axis at a fixed angle.
