A review on the applications of virtual reality, augmented reality and mixed reality in surgical simulation: an extension to different kinds of surgery Hasselt University
Background: Research proves that the apprenticeship model, which is the gold standard for training surgical residents, is obsolete. For that reason, there is a continuing effort toward the development of high-fidelity surgical simulators to replace the apprenticeship model. Applying Virtual Reality Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR) in surgical simulators increases the fidelity, level of immersion and overall experience of these ...
A Platform for Subjective Quality Assessment in Mixed Reality Environments Interuniversity Microelectronics Centre
3D objects are important components in Mixed Reality (MR) environments as they allow users to inspect and interact with them in a six degrees of freedom (6DoF) system. Point clouds (PCs) and meshes are two common 3D object representations that can be compressed to reduce the delivered data at the cost of quality degradation. In addition, as the end users can move around in 6DoF applications, the viewing distance can vary. Quality assessment is ...
Virtual Reality and Mixed Reality Education: A Solution for Today’s Education in a Circular Bioeconomy Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Towards mixed reality in SCADA applications Ghent University
Exploration of design methods and tools for virtual, augmented and mixed reality University of Antwerp
This paper shows an overview of design practices of the XR-lab at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences, The Netherlands. Over the course of six years, interdisciplinary teams of students have delivered 55+ prototypes in virtual, augmented, and mixed reality for a variety of 40+ clients. As human-computer interaction is entering a new evolutionary phase towards human-computer integration, new opportunities in extended reality (XR) have ...
Towards a framework for a nation-wide implementation of augmented, virtual and mixed reality in K-12 technical and vocational education Ghent University
As augmented, virtual and mixed reality have become more user-friendly and affordable, these technologies gained increasing interest from education. Teachers all over the world are triggered by the perceived benefits and start experimenting. However, teachers encounter obstacles to pursue effective implementation. This paper describes how these obstacles are being tackled in Flanders (Belgium) via a large-scale, nation-wide framework for the ...
Workshop on creativity in designing with & for mixed reality University of Antwerp
Comparison of 2D and autostereoscopic 3D visualization during mixed reality simulation KU Leuven
PURPOSE: In general minimally invasive surgical procedures, surgeons are tied to 2D visualization, leading to the loss of depth perception. This can lead to large mental load for the surgeons and may be responsible for the long learning curve. To restore the sense of depth, this study investigated the use and benefits of an autostereoscopic (3D) display during a simulated laparoscopic task. METHODS: A mixed reality simulator was developed for ...
