The Polaris Vega® ST is a versatile optical tracker that can provide trusted measurements in an array of OEM-supported surgical applications, delivering accurate and reliable 3D tracking data. Tracking is achieved via navigation markers that can be attached to OEM surgical instruments such as probes, shavers, awls, drills, microdebriders, and more. Exclusive to the Polaris Vega ST is an available Radiation Hardening option. The Radiation Hardening option protects the optical tracker from gamma and neutron radiation by way of a shielded processor and modified memory management. This extra protection allows the Polaris Vega ST to be safely integrated into OEM surgical navigation systems and workflows that are used in radiation therapy suites. Exceptional Measurement Accuracy The Polaris Vega ST delivers high volumetric accuracy to 0.12 mm RMS with low noise. Track passive spheres attached to tools with confidence; hardware characterization and factory calibration optimize accuracy for measurements that are highly repeatable and reliable. Robust Hardware Design The Polaris Vega ST can include optional radiation hardening to maintain accurate and reliable performance in harsh environments, such as those found in radiation therapy suites. Consistent operation in variable room conditions add to product robustness. Streamlined Tool Design The Polaris Vega ST has a built-in API and available software to facilitate tool development and accelerate integration into OEM and end-user software applications. The NDI ToolBox software includes utilities for ongoing system diagnostics and maintenance.
