Embodiment Construction

[0047] figure 1 is a schematic diagram of an ophthalmic surgery simulator 100 . The simulator 100 includes a computer 102 having memory and a processor. The processor is arranged to execute software stored in the memory, in particular software for simulating a medical procedure such as an ophthalmic operation. Computer 102 is connected to VDU ​​104 , stand 106 , first haptic system 108 and second haptic system 110 .

[0048] The VUD is configured with two separate outputs mounted behind respective eyepieces which are closer to the ophthalmic microscope.

[0049] Each haptic system 108, 110 includes first and second handpieces 112, 114, respectively. Haptic systems 108, 110 and handpieces 112, 114 will not be described in detail. Generally, the haptic systems 108, 110 are configured to monitor the position of the handpieces 112, 114, respectively, and provide force feedback. As the user operates the handpieces 112, 114, the computer 102 moves the virtual tool in the virtua...

Abstract

A medical simulator rest (106) has a model (116) mounted on a force sensing apparatus (118), which model (116) can be used as a hand rest providing force / displacement response to a simulation.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to medical surgery simulators, and more particularly, the present invention relates to hand supports for ophthalmic surgery simulators. Background technique [0002] Simulators for medical procedures are known in the prior art, for example the applicant's Simodont (TM) dental trainer. Known simulators include a computer that controls the simulation process and generates the virtual environment, a VDU (Visual Display Unit) that displays the simulated environment, and one or two handpieces that can be connected to the computer to provide input. In this state, there are two environments, the physical environment where the operator can control the inputs into the simulation process, and the virtual environment of the simulation. [0003] The simulated environment includes the patient and a virtual version of the tools controlled by the handpiece. The tool may be a surgical tool (knife, syringe, etc.) or other device (such as...
