[0060] Eye Sealing Care Steps: The user wears an MR glasses, and virtual handwashing steps are presented in the user's field of vision. After the user finishes washing hands, the user selects eye ointment through gestures or voice commands. The MR system simulates checking the expiration date and packaging integrity of the eye ointment. When the user is operating, the MR system displays the distance between the eye ointment nozzle and the eyeball in real time, and uses colors and sounds to prompt the user to adjust to the optimal distance. The MR system displays a virtual eyeball model in the user's field of vision and demonstrates pulling down the lower eyelid and applying the eye ointment. The user follows the virtual guidance to simulate applying the eye ointment. The MR system monitors the user's gestures and operations in real time, collects feedback and adjustment suggestions. The MR system displays virtual models of sterile gauze and 3M transparent tape in the user's field of vision.

[0061] Eye Ointment Application Steps: Select the eye ointment according to the treatment needs, open the package of the sterile cotton swab, take out the cotton swab and place it on a clean sterile workbench for standby. Use the sterile cotton swab to push aside the eyelashes and check if there is dirt around the eyelashes. If there is dirt, gently wipe it clean with the sterile cotton swab. Gently pull down the user's lower eyelid with your hand to expose the conjunctival sac. Use the other hand to squeeze out an appropriate amount of eye ointment and evenly apply it inside the lower eyelid. Relax the eyelid and gently close the eyes.

The MR system prompts the user to keep the dropper of the eye drop bottle 2 cm away from the eyeball. In the virtual environment, the user can move the eye drop bottle to the specified distance through hand operations and see the distance scale in the MR glasses in real time. Under the prompt of the MR system, the user gently pulls down the lower eyelid with one hand, and holds the eye drop bottle 2 cm above the other hand, gently squeezes the bottle body, and drops the eye drops into the small pocket formed by the lower eyelid. The MR system prompts the user to gently close the eyes and turn the eyeball in all directions, and tracks the eyeball movement in real time and gives visual feedback;

[0064] Functional exercise steps: The user wears an MR glasses and tries to focus on a virtual sphere by moving the head and eyes. The MR system monitors the user's focusing degree in real time and displays the moving path of a sphere in the virtual environment, including up, down, left, right and the middle positions, and shows clear indication signs to guide the direction of the user's eye movement;

[0065] Use 3D modeling software to create 3D models related to postoperative care, including eye structures, nursing tools and environments, and make corresponding animations for each nursing task to demonstrate the correct operation steps and gestures;

[0066] Optimize the details and textures of the 3D models, adjust the smoothness and authenticity of the animations, integrate the designed virtual content into the MR system, collect user experiences and feedback, and optimize and adjust the 3D modeling according to the feedback;

[0068] In the virtual environment, using 3D models and animation processes, the user can practice repeatedly in the virtual environment, better master nursing skills. Through the MR system, the user can clearly see each step and the correct gestures, be immersed in the virtual environment of postoperative care, which helps to improve the accuracy of operations, deepen the user's understanding and memory of the nursing process. By collecting user experiences and feedback, timely adjust and optimize the 3D models and animations to ensure the quality and applicability of the teaching content. The development and use of this virtual nursing content will promote technological innovation in the field of medical care and contribute to the popularization and application of advanced technologies in the medical industry.

[0069] S2. An operation simulation module, which is used to simulate the touch feeling of real nursing operations through a force feedback handle and a tactile feedback glove;

[0070] Specifically, simulating the touch feeling of real nursing operations through a force feedback handle and a tactile feedback glove means using the force feedback handle and the tactile feedback glove to provide touch feedback;

[0071] Select a force feedback handle with six degrees of freedom, where the six degrees of freedom include three-axis translation and three-axis rotation. Select a high-precision brushless DC motor as the drive source of the feedback handle, and transmit the force feedback data to the central processor through a high-speed serial bus;

[0072] Select a multi-point tactile feedback glove, use the pressure point actuator as the tactile feedback unit, and equip each finger and palm area with a tactile feedback unit. The tactile feedback unit simulates the sense of touch through vibration and pressure feedback. A distributed control system is used to independently control each tactile feedback unit. The distributed control system adjusts the tactile feedback in real time according to the user's operation situation, and transmits the tactile feedback data to the central processor through a wireless communication module.

[0073] The force feedback handle and the tactile feedback glove can simulate the strength and touch in real nursing operations, enabling users to adjust their operations in a timely manner during the training process. This helps users master the correct strength and techniques during the operation, improve the accuracy of nursing operations, and provide data support for teaching and research by recording the operation data of users during the training process, which is helpful for improving the training effect of nursing operation skills.

[0074] S3. A motion capture module, which is used to capture the motion trajectory of the user during postoperative nursing operations and process and analyze the data;

[0075] Specifically, capturing the motion trajectory of the user during postoperative nursing operations means using laser pulse emission and detection technology to capture the motion trajectory of the user in the force feedback handle and the tactile feedback glove;

[0076] Install a laser pulse emitter so that the emitted laser covers the entire operation area, and install laser pulse detectors on the force feedback handle and the tactile feedback glove;

[0077] Locate the laser pulse signal, set the emission frequencies of the laser pulse emitters to be 30Hz, 40Hz, and 50Hz respectively, and record the time t when each emitter emits a pulse signal i , use the laser pulse detector to receive the laser pulse signal from the emitter, and record the reception time t r , according to the emission and reception times, calculate the propagation time T of the laser pulse signal. The formula is:

[0078] T = t r -t i

[0079] Among them, T represents the propagation time of the laser pulse signal, t r represents the reception time of the laser pulse signal, t i represents the time when each emitter emits a laser pulse signal;

[0080] Use the speed of light c to calculate the distance d from the detector to each emitter i , the formula is:

[0081] d i = c·T

[0082] Among them, di where \(d\) represents the distance from the detector to each emitter, \(c\) represents the speed of light, and \(T\) represents the propagation time of the laser pulse signal;

[0083] Obtain the detector position data based on the calculated distance data;

[0084] Use a laser pulse emitter and a detector to capture the movement trajectory of the user's hand, and guide the user to perform hand movements through the system interface.

[0085] Laser pulse technology can provide high-precision positioning information to ensure the accuracy of the user's hand movement trajectory. By capturing the user's hand movement trajectory in real time, the MR system can immediately provide feedback to help the user understand whether their operation is accurate and make timely adjustments, thereby improving the training effect. By accurately capturing the hand movement trajectory, the system can provide a more realistic and intuitive training experience for the user, thereby improving the training quality. The system can record the user's movement trajectory data, which can be used for subsequent analysis and evaluation. Laser pulse technology can adapt to different operating environments and regions, with strong flexibility and adaptability.

[0086] Furthermore, the data processing and analysis refers to transmitting the calculated detector position data to the central processing unit. After receiving the data, the central processing unit performs real-time analysis and processing of the movement trajectory to generate real-time feedback and guidance information for the user's operation;

[0087] The results of the analysis and processing are displayed to the user in real time through the MR glasses to provide operation guidance and correction information. The system continuously tracks the user's operation and updates the position data in real time.

[0088] By displaying the results of the analysis and processing to the user in real time, the system can provide immediate operation guidance and correction information to help the user understand whether their operation is accurate in a timely manner during the training process and make corresponding adjustments. The processing and analysis of real-time data can provide a more realistic and dynamic training environment, making the training closer to the actual working scenario, thereby enhancing the training effect. The MR system can adjust the feedback information in real time according to the user's operation situation to provide a personalized training plan. At the same time, the system can also automatically adjust the training difficulty according to the user's progress to achieve adaptive training.

[0089] Furthermore, the use of a camera to capture environmental images in real time and perform preprocessing includes,

[0090] The user performs eye care operation exercises in a virtual care environment, and uses a high-resolution camera to capture the environmental images around the user in real time;

[0091] Preprocess the collected environmental images, including denoising, enhancing contrast, and color correction, and transmit the preprocessed environmental images to the MR glasses for image enhancement. Apply the image enhancement algorithm, the formula is:

[0092] E = β·R + γ

[0093] Among them, E represents the enhanced image, R represents the original image, β represents the contrast adjustment coefficient, and γ represents the brightness adjustment value.

[0094] Real-time capture and preprocess the environmental images around the user through a high-resolution camera, and then use the MR glasses for image enhancement. This process brings significant benefits to virtual nursing operation training. It not only improves the realism of the operation and the clarity of visual feedback, enhances the training effect, but also ensures the safety of the training. The virtual training method that combines real-time image acquisition and processing provides users with an efficient, safe, and highly interactive training solution.

[0095] S4. MR display terminal module, used to overlay virtual postoperative care guidance information onto the actual operation environment and provide immediate operation guidance and feedback;

[0096] Specifically, overlaying virtual care guidance information onto the actual operation environment and providing immediate operation guidance and feedback includes,

[0097] Generate corresponding virtual care guidance information according to the care process, and set the transparency of the virtual care guidance information using the transparency coefficient. The formula is:

[0098] I MR = I Real + α·I Virtual

[0099] Among them, I MR represents the mixed reality image, I Real represents the real-world image, I Virtual represents the virtual image, and α is the transparency coefficient;

[0100] Overlay the virtual care guidance information onto the real-time collected environmental images for fusion. Use depth information to determine the position of the virtual content in the three-dimensional space and its relative position relationship with real-world objects. Use spatial positioning technology to enable the MR system to real-time track the position changes of the user and the device and adjust the position and perspective of the virtual content, and align the objects in the virtual content with the objects in the actual environment.

[0101] The virtual nursing guidance information is superimposed on the actual operation environment and integrated through the adjustment of the transparency coefficient and depth information and spatial positioning technology, providing real-time guidance and feedback for nursing operations. It allows users to intuitively see the virtual guidance information, such as operation steps, precautions, and key skills, during actual operations, thereby improving the accuracy and safety of operations. The adjustment of the transparency coefficient ensures that the virtual information does not completely block the real environment, and the application of depth information and spatial positioning technology guarantees the consistency between the virtual content and the real environment, enabling virtual objects to accurately align with objects in the real world, further enhancing the realism and intuitiveness of operations.
