Our short term objective is to develop a system capable of comparing an expert surgeon and a trainee using measurements provided by bio-metric signals as they perform their tasks. Our goal is to compare not only dexterity but also task precision and safety. The long term objective is to determine if complex ambidextrous MIS manipulations can be transferred between an expert surgeon and a trainee by multi-modal visuo-haptic guidance using a What-You-Feel-Is-What-I-Feel (WYFIWIF) paradigm. The WYFIWIF paradigm has been shown recently to be a very effective approach at skill transfer and acquisition for a variety of applications. Both short term and long term objectives complement each other as we will use the measurements provided by the gesture acquisition system to design the visuo-haptic guidance system and to validate how efficient the system works. This new design approaches could represent a scientific breakthrough in human computer interface and advanced augmented reality systems in the field of medical training. In collaboration with CAMIS, the Advanced Man-Machine Interface Laboratory (AMMI), the new UofA chair in surgical simulation, and Quanser Inc. (a Canadian Company specialized in haptic interface development), we will address these important research issues.

我们的短期目标是开发一种系统，能够在专业外科医生和实习医生执行任务时，使用生物识别信号提供的测量值来对他们进行比较。我们的目标不仅是比较灵巧性，而且是任务精度和安全性。长期目标是确定复杂的双灵巧MIS操作是否可以在专家外科医生和学员之间通过多模态视觉-触觉指导，使用“你感觉就是我感觉”（WYFIWIF）范式进行转移。WYFIWIF范式最近被证明是一种非常有效的技能转移和获取方法，适用于各种应用程序。短期目标和长期目标相辅相成，因为我们将使用手势获取系统提供的测量来设计视觉-触觉引导系统，并验证系统的工作效率。这种新的设计方法可能代表了人机界面和先进的增强现实系统在医疗培训领域的科学突破。我们将与CAMIS、先进人机界面实验室（AMMI）、UofA外科模拟领域的新主席和Quanser公司（一家专门从事触觉界面开发的加拿大公司）合作，解决这些重要的研究问题。
