Training in healthcare sector utilizing Virtual Reality on our platform, in partnership with Varjo
In the ever-evolving world of technology, Virtual Reality (VR) is making a significant impact, particularly in the healthcare sector. One such platform, Varjo, is being utilised for VR training in healthcare.
Recently, a webinar demonstrated a surgical training test in VR, monitored by eye tracking and electrodermal activity. This test aimed to provide fast, meaningful insights to healthcare professionals, offering a controlled environment for training and evaluation.
For those interested in delving deeper into the realm of VR, a comprehensive 52-page guide has been made available. Authored by Ralf H. Komor, this guide focuses on valuable insights from human behaviour research in Virtual Reality. The guide is designed to be accessible and comprehensive for both beginners and intermediates, aiming to help users take their VR research to the next level.
However, it's important to note that this guide does not appear to be specific to any particular VR platform. One of the key features of VR for healthcare training, multimodal biosensor tracking, is not explicitly mentioned in the guide.
During the surgical training tests, the performance of different healthcare trainees and their physiological reactions were observed. However, the walkthrough provided does not demonstrate these tests or performance evaluations.
Meanwhile, Dr. Rafael Grossmann, a renowned surgical expert, has been associated with the optimization of training simulations in VR environments. He has demonstrated the use of built-in eye tracking and biosensors in these simulations, offering a more immersive and effective training experience.
Despite the 52-page guide's availability, its content and purpose remain somewhat unclear. It's an exciting time for VR in healthcare, and with guides like these, we can expect to see even more advancements in the future.
