In various examples, a dental and medical loupe system for lighting control, streaming, and augmented reality (AR) assisted procedures is provided. Facial recognition algorithms and/or inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensors may be used to determine when a light disposed on eye-glasses of a wearer should be activated. As a result, instead of requiring a medical practitioner to manually turn on and off the light source, facial recognition may be used to determine when the dentist is looking toward a face of a patient, and to turn on the light when a face is present and off when a face is not present. In addition, some examples leverage augmented reality (AR) functionality to overlay patient and procedure information on one or more lenses of eye-glasses worn by a practitioner to allow for an un-occluded view of the actual location where the procedure is being performed.
