Haptic Display for a Virtual Reality Simulator for Flexible Endoscopy

Implementation of a Haptic Interface for a Virtual Reality Simulator for Flexible Endoscopy

A simulation system for flexible endoscopy is described, based on virtual reality techniques. The physician moves the flexible endoscope inside a pipe, in which forces are applied to it. In addition the navigation wheels provide force feedback from the bending of the endoscope’s tip. The paper focuses on the design and implementation of the special purpose haptic display which actively generate...

A Review on Applications of Haptic Systems, Virtual Reality, and Artificial Intelligence in Medical Training in COVID-19 Pandemic

This paper presents a survey on haptic technology, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence applications in medical training during the COVID-19 pandemic. Over the last few decades, there has been a great deal of interest in using new technologies to establish capable approaches for medical training purposes. These methods are intended to minimize surgerychr('39')s adverse effects, mostly w...

Using Motion Platform as a Haptic Display for Virtual Inertia Simulation

Haptic displays serve great importance in creating the immersiveness sense that block Virtual Reality (VR) users from the contradictory impressions from the real world. This paper introduces the general structure of Virtual Reality systems. It reports common approaches in constructing different virtual scenarios and the way they are utilised. The main objective of this project is to integrate a...

VR-in-a-Box: Surgical Simulator - Supplementing Surgical Training for medical students using a low-cost virtual reality simulator with real-time haptic feedback Final Report

Virtual Bone Surgery Using a Haptic Robot

Article history: Received: August 15, 2009. Received in revised form: November 24, 2009. Accepted: November 29, 2009. This paper describes a virtual reality (VR)-assisted robotic surgery simulator for bone surgery training. A trainee surgeon holds the haptic robot stylus and manipulates it three-dimensionally to interact with the virtual bone. The robotic simulator allows the trainee surgeon to...
