Implementation of a Haptic Interface for a Virtual Reality Simulator for Flexible Endoscopy
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 generates forces to model the complex interaction of physician, endoscope and patient.

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...
متن کاملVirtual reality surgical simulation for lower urinary tract endoscopy and procedures.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To provide a realistic experience of lower urinary tract endoscopic procedures, we have developed and continue to expand a computer-based surgical simulator that incorporates a surgical tool interface with anatomic detail and haptic feedback. METHODS Surface-based geometric data for the lower urinary tract were generated from the National Library of Medicine Visible Hum...
متن کاملHERMES System: a Virtual Reality Simulator for the Angioplasty Intervention Training
One of the essential requirements in order to have a realistic surgical simulator is real-time interaction by means of a haptic interface is. In fact, reproducing haptic sensations increases the realism of the simulation. However, the interaction need to be performed in real-time, since a delay between the user action and the system reaction reduces the user immersion. In this paper, we present...
متن کاملHaptic and Visual Simulation of a Material Cutting Process A Study Focused on Bone Surgery and the Use of Simulators for Education and Training
A prototype of a haptic and virtual reality simulator has been developed for simulation of the bone milling and material removal process occurring in several operations, e.g. temporal bone surgery or dental milling. The milling phase of an operation is difficult, safety critical and very time consuming. Reduction of operation time by only a few percent would in the long run save society large e...
