We created a flexible colonoscopy simulation framework using OpenGL and haptic devices. This system enables realistic training and research by integrating advanced physically-based modeling and GPU acceleration for real-time feedback.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Simulation
  • Computer Graphics
  • Robotics

Background:

  • Colonoscopy is a vital diagnostic procedure.
  • Realistic simulation training is crucial for surgical skills development.
  • Existing simulation tools may lack advanced haptic feedback and modularity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a versatile, multi-threaded framework for colonoscopy simulation.
  • To integrate real-time haptic feedback using a prototype device.
  • To facilitate the incorporation of advanced physically-based modeling techniques.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized OpenGL for graphics rendering.
  • Developed a multi-threaded framework for efficient processing.
  • Integrated a real-time haptic device interface.
