The hardware layer

Gear medical XR runs on.

Clinical software has to be delivered on a device. AVRMD tracks the general-purpose headsets that medical XR is deployed on, so device questions can be separated from clinical ones.

These are not medical devices

Every headset listed here is general-purpose consumer or enterprise hardware. Regulatory clearance attaches to the medical software or system deployed on a headset, never to the headset itself.
