Redefine how you store, access, and utilize surgical video  

Video analysis is used by countless industries for performance improvement and surgery is no exception. However, capturing surgical video, building an active video repository, and ensuring video collected is actionable can be challenging.  


The Explorer software module automatically captures, categorizes, and stores audiovisual surgical data collected by the Black Box Platform. Within this active video library, surgeons are empowered to annotate, collaborate, and measure performance to improve clinical practice and patient outcomes.
