Background:

Previous work introduced a network-based visuohaptic system for laparoscopic surgery training.
A volume-based haptic communication approach was developed for shared virtual object interaction.

Purpose of the Study:

To report the results of a field trial for a network-based minimally invasive surgery simulator.
To validate the implemented volume-based haptic communication approach in a multi-site setting.

Main Methods:

Implementation of a volume-based haptic communication approach into a network-based surgery simulator.
Conducting a field trial of the simulator across three remote locations.
Utilizing manipulation parameters and synchronization packets for shared virtual object interaction.

Main Results:

Successful field trial of the network-based minimally invasive surgery simulator at three distinct locations.
Demonstrated simultaneous interaction with shared virtual objects by remote participants.
Efficient data exchange using manipulation parameters and synchronization packets.

Conclusions:

The network-based minimally invasive surgery simulator is effective for multi-site collaborative training.
The volume-based haptic communication approach enables realistic remote surgical simulation.
Further development can enhance remote surgical education and practice.
