This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing a new augmented reality headset system called ARVIS that helps surgeons perform knee replacement surgery more precisely. The system uses real-time guidance during the operation to help align your new knee joint to match your body's natural alignment. Researchers want to see if this new technology produces better surgical outcomes than the traditional method.
Knee replacement surgery is very common, but how surgeons align the new joint can affect how well your knee works afterward. Recent research suggests that restoring your knee's natural alignment leads to better function and outcomes, and this study is testing whether the new augmented reality guidance system helps surgeons achieve that natural alignment more reliably.

You will undergo knee replacement surgery and be randomly assigned to receive either the new augmented reality-guided surgery or the traditional surgical technique. Before and after surgery, you will have X-rays taken of both knees so researchers can compare how well each method restored your natural knee alignment. You will need to attend follow-up appointments and complete questionnaires about your knee function and recovery.
