In the age of digitalisation, healthcare is rapidly becoming safer, smarter, and more accurate. In large, the combination of AIoT and medical equipment has paved way for the rise in smart medical technology. Taiwan, leading the charge in the development of smart medical technology, currently has an annual healthcare industry export that exceeds US$3 billion.
To attract the more people to experience Taiwan’s innovative healthcare, Taiwan Excellence has planned a series of online healthcare product launches, namely Smart Medical Express. On 16 October 2020, “Taiwan – ASEAN Medical Device and Innovation Forum” was conducted to showcase Taiwanese companies with latest advanced products.
Leonor Lin, President/CEO of the Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA), stated that innovation drives progress in the healthcare, the number of Taiwan Excellence award-winning products in the healthcare industry went from only three products in 2010 to 49 products in 2020. The application of AI, 3D printing, AR, automated detection and other technologies have also enhanced healthcare product qualities across abroad.
During the forum, Taiwan Main Orthopaedic Biotechnology introduced Foresee-X Smart Surgical Glasses Solution, the world’s first cutting-edge smart surgical glasses that applies augmented reality technology into surgical theatres to give doctor’s a better experience during surgery.

Traditionally, surgeons need to take a lot of radiological images during the entire surgical procedures, exposing both patients and surgeons to radiation. Surgeons then have to turn their head numerous times to refer to it. With Foresee-X’s real-time images with the medical image processing box, doctors are able to focus 100% on the patient, reduce surgical time and make smaller incisions during surgeries. Additionally, the Foresee-X has the ability to be connected to various standard medical devices like ultrasound, endoscope, navigation systems, and more.
Besides of the surgical glasses, Taiwan’s finest medical equipment innovations were also exemplified by these companies:
Faspro System’s Wireless Medical Camera, a hands free camera that combines optical design with image processing system to provide doctors with comprehensive surgery and screening data;
Crystalvue Medial’s TonoVue, an automated non-contact tonometer that can track the eye center and calculate the IOP automatically with just tap of a button;
Mediland Enterprise’s Hyper Light Disinfection Robot, utilizes UVGI disinfection method to eradicate 99.99% in 5 to 15 minutes;
IEI Integration’s Body Temperature Monitoring Solution, the first company to combine body temperature monitoring with facial recognition function to make it easier to track a person with high temperature;
Quanta Computer’s Wireless Stethoscope, which can diagnose a patient’s lung state without touching the patient’s body, reducing contact and thus infection rates among medical personnel.
