The Apella system in use. The proprietary computer vision technology is capable of identifying and tracking tasks carried out in the operating room from pre-surgery to post-surgery. It identifies (A) scrubbed and unscrubbed staff, as well as (B) whether the tray is opened on the back table. The system also measures the time needed for pre-surgical tasks, (C) how much time it takes to start surgery, and (D) how long it takes to finish post-surgical tasks.
