Surgical Science's Aeris Wins CES Innovation Award for Ultrasound Training

GOTHENBURG, Sweden, Nov. 10, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Surgical Science, a global leader in simulation products for healthcare training, has announced that its innovative ultrasound simulator, Aeris, has received the CES Innovation Awards® Best of Innovation designation in the Education Technology category. This recognition comes ahead of CES 2027, set to take place in January in Las Vegas.

Aeris, developed by Surgical Science, transforms any person or surface into an interactive ultrasound simulator, providing a full 3D scanning experience of the adult torso. The simulator enables learners to practice key ultrasound foundations, including probe handling, pathology recognition, and clinical decision-making. By eliminating the need for a dedicated manikin or fixed training environment, Aeris brings realistic ultrasound training to a wide variety of educational settings.

The award, presented by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), recognizes outstanding technology products based on engineering and functionality, aesthetics and design, and uniqueness and innovation. Aeris closely replicates a real-world ultrasound examination, enabling learners to practice across a variety of patient scenarios. Starting with a simulation of a healthy patient, learners can select and adjust common pathologies via the app, providing a versatile training experience.

Surgical Science, headquartered in Gothenburg, Sweden, is a global leader in evidence-based medical simulation. The company's virtual reality simulators and customized training solutions enable surgeons and healthcare professionals to practice and improve their skills outside the operating room, enhancing patient safety and clinical outcomes. Surgical Science also partners with medical technology and robotics companies to integrate tailor-made simulation technology into their devices, helping them accelerate innovation and gain a competitive edge.

CES 2027, scheduled for January in Las Vegas, is a major event for showcasing the latest in consumer technology. The Best of Innovation designation is a testament to the quality and impact of Aeris, highlighting its potential to revolutionize ultrasound training in healthcare education.
