Company
Illuminant Surgical
A new way of seeing inside the human body.
We're building Skylight™, a platform that projects real-time anatomical images directly onto a patient during surgery. This gives doctors an x-ray vision view to guide interventions safely without looking away at separate screens.
We live in Culver City, CA, and would keep the company based there after YC.
We are already established in Culver City, where our team's pooled skills and resources are accessible, and we want to continue building where our hardware and clinical partnerships naturally connect.
