Kaliber Labs is a San Francisco AI research foundry building software that captures rare human expertise - starting in the operating room - and turns it into scalable tools. Trained on one of the world's largest libraries of arthroscopic surgical video and guided by dozens of leading orthopedic surgeons, Kaliber's systems perceive anatomy in real time, automate surgical documentation, and give surgeons, staff, and patients AI that understands what is actually happening inside a procedure.
Illuminant Surgical is a Culver City / Los Angeles medical device startup building Skylight, a real-time anatomical projection system that displays a patient's internal imaging directly onto their skin during surgery. Using AI, computer vision and dynamic projection mapping - technology borrowed in part from entertainment-industry projection artists - the company aims to give surgeons a kind of 'x-ray vision' for spine surgery, cancer biopsies and other image-guided procedures without forcing them to look away from the operating field.
