LaparoscopyVR Virtual Reality System

LaparoscopyVR Virtual Reality System (called LapVR surgical simulator) simulates laparoscopic surgery, using TouchSense technology.   It provides virtual reality training in the essential skills required for laparoscopic procedures.   The LapVR surgical simulator comes packaged as a complete system with selected software module(s) and height adjustable cart, monitor swing, foot pedal, camera and tools.   The LapVR Surgical Simulator's recorded performance, precision and error metrics allow medical institutions to access individual and team performance.   The simulator supports three fully instrumented tools - two trocars with interchangeable simulated tool tips and an endoscopic camera with 0, 30 and 45 degree lenses and high-speed optical tracking technology to monitor tool motion accurately.   The LapVR virtual reality simulation system enables developers, researchers and educators to supply realistic virtual reality training of laparoscopic abdominal procedures and skills.   Surgeons from renowned institutions helped making lifelike medical simulations.

Comments & References: The LapVR was designed by reviewing the Fundamentals of Laparoscopic Surgery (FLS) curricula endorsed by the Society of American Gastrointestinal  Endoscopic Surgeons' (SAGES).
