"AI-assisted head pose estimation for marker-less patient registration using a mixed reality device."‣Implementation of an algorithm for AI-based facial reconstruction and head pose estimation for patient registration for marker-less surgical navigation systems. ‣The introduced approach not only showed robustness and accuracy under various conditions—including differences in lighting, facial occlusions, and skin types—but also eliminates the dependence on potentially error-prone hardware components of augmented reality glasses. ‣A system has been developed that can contribute to improved outcomes in emergency interventions in the head area by providing immediate patient registration based on a single RGB image.
