Area of Science:

Medical Education
Virtual Reality Technology
Surgical Simulation

Background:

Creating specialized virtual reality (VR) training units for surgeons is challenging.
The process of authoring, modeling, and developing VR content is time-consuming.
Current methods limit the variety and relevance of available VR surgical training.

Purpose of the Study:

To describe a software bridge that semi-automates the VR scene-generation cycle.
To reduce the bottleneck in VR training unit development.
To empower surgeon-educators in creating custom VR training modules.

Main Methods:

Augmenting an open-source modeling environment.
Integrating physical behavior attachment and collision specifications.
Developing a software bridge to semi-automate scene generation.

Main Results:

The software bridge significantly speeds up the VR scene-generation process.
Single-click testing of anatomical scenes with force-feedback is now possible.
Facilitates greater variety, specialization, and relevance in VR training units.

Conclusions:

The developed software bridge effectively addresses a key bottleneck in VR training creation.
Empowers educators to develop tailored and relevant surgical simulations.
Enhances the potential for diverse and specialized VR surgical training.
