Mixed Reality Manikins for Medical Education

In medical education, human patient simulators, or manikins, are a well established method of teaching medical skills. The current state of the art manikins are limited in their functions by a fixed number of in-built hardware devices, such as pressure sensors and motor actuators that control the manikin behaviors and responses. In this work, we review several research projects, where applied t...

When evaluating human-machine interaction it is central to consider anthropometric diversity to ensure intended accommodation levels. A well-known method is the use of boundary cases where manikins with extreme but likely measurement combinations are derived by mathematical treatment of anthropometric data. The supposition by that method is that the use of these manikins will facilitate accommo...
