Background:

  • Laparoscopic surgery is increasingly popular globally.
  • This surgical approach demands high surgeon dexterity.
  • Current laparoscopic procedures offer limited visual and tactile feedback, hindering skill acquisition.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a foundational simulation system for laparoscopic surgery.
  • To address the challenge of reduced tactile information during laparoscopic procedures.
  • To focus on presenting realistic resistance from virtual organs within the simulation.

Main Methods:

  • Construction of a basic simulation system integrating virtual environment technology.
  • Implementation of force display to simulate organ resistance.
