Direct peers

Boston Scientific: U.S. medical device major with a meaningful endoscopy franchise (single-use scopes, visualization, therapeutic devices). Comparable to Aohua in endoscopic imaging and accessories, particularly in therapeutic endoscopy.
Huger Medical Instruments: Chinese endoscopy equipment manufacturer with video endoscopy and surgical endoscopy systems. Competes directly with Aohua in domestic hospital accounts at similar price/spec tiers.
Karl Storz: Germany-based privately held endoscopy specialist with deep rigid endoscopy and visualization product lines. Closely comparable to Aohua in scope systems, light sources, and camera platforms, particularly in surgical endoscopy.
Stryker Corporation: U.S. medical device major with a significant endoscopy and visualization business (acquired from Entellus and others). Competes with Aohua in surgical endoscopy hardware and integrated visualization towers.
Fujifilm Healthcare: Major Japanese player in flexible endoscopy and medical imaging, with established 4K endoscopy platforms (ELUXEO). Competes head-to-head with Aohua's AQ-300 in GI endoscopy globally.
SonoScape Medical: Chinese-listed medical device company with endoscopy and ultrasound product lines. Closely comparable to Aohua as a domestic Chinese endoscopy competitor targeting similar mid-tier hospital segments.
Olympus Corporation: Global leader in flexible and rigid endoscopy systems (gastrointestinal, surgical, urology). Direct competitor to Aohua across the full endoscopy stack; sets the technological benchmark that the AQ-300 4K system is positioned against.
