Lighting in the Operating Room

From the WSJ (sub required)

"Operating-room lights have barely changed in decades. Mayo Clinic and Zeeland, Mich.-based automotive electronics supplier Gentex Corp. are creating overhead lights that use cameras and machine-vision algorithms to alter the intensity and direction of light, minimize glare and eliminate shadows.

Eventually, surgeons may be able to set the lighting based on the type of procedure and the person performing it, simply by asking the system to adjust. Beyond that, the lights may have an ultraviolet setting that would sanitize the room overnight."
