illumination depth and excellent colour rendering values and contrast ratios. Its various light functions support the surgeon in conducting surgical interventions, e.g. selecting different colour temperatures, light intensities, light field diameters, or an Endo Light mode. A 4K camera integrated seamlessly next to the inner handle is immediately ready for use and provides clear and precise pictures.Our concept is a modular system with a slim and modern design. There are 3 pre-configured variants available:Polaris ComfortPolaris ProPolaris Pro+All of them are easy to upgrade and adapt to comply to future requirements. Retrofit from former Dräger lights to new ones is nearly effortless.To allow partner companies to interact with our light heads in their system, the Polaris lights feature an interface for OR Integration.

t all Dräger devices. There are control options for sterile and non-sterile personnel. Colour markings above the light head and on the wall panel help to clearly assign the individual controls to the lights. To ensure smooth processes, we focus on the ergonomic arrangement of of all devices in your OR.Our Polaris light offers a range of functions that can help to streamline your workflows:3D Shadow Compensation: The 3D shadow compensation function detects objects between the light head and the surgical field and compensates for shadowing by actively controlling the LEDs. By providing a constant brightness in the surgical field, an optimal surgical procedure is facilitated.Light Guard: A single light head cannot exceed the threshold for irradiance. However, if the light fields of two light heads are directed on the same point, the permissible limit value can be exceeded1. The Light Guard function comfortably supports the irradiance on both the skin and surgical field, by reducing it to a value of 700 W/m2.Anti Glare function: High differences in brightness can lead to eye fatigue2. The Anti-Glare function makes sure that there is a smooth transition of the light field between the brightly-lit surgical field and the darker surrounding. With the help of the adjustable brightness transition, surgeon’s concentration levels can be positively supported, especially during long surgeries.Sync Mode: when activating the Sync Mode, all of the system’s active light heads work with the same light settings, so that the light heads can be controlled simultanously with one control panel. The following features can be synchronised: light intensity, colour temperature, light field diameter, endolight, anti-glare mode.Eye Relax: Blue light can possibly negatively affect the eye3. The Eye Relax function sets the luminaire to an eyecare mode with low blue content. It also optimally sets colour temperature, light intensity and light field, while maintaining high colour rendering indices.Preset Manager: Creating individual light settings, and later selecting these settings, enables a faster start-up in the OR. The surgeon's preferred settings can be saved according to type of surgery or to individual users. The Polaris comes with exemplary pre-saved settings for a wide range of surgery procedures.1) ECRI Institute: Hazard report.
