Verification ofeffectiveness on skill learning usingone-to-manytactile transfer in surgical simulation

本研究建构一个可由一位教师教导多位受训者的腹腔镜手术训练系统，并验证技能学习的成效。该系统由通过网络互连的多个手术VR模拟器构成。在该系统上，一个教学外科医生可以同时向多个学生模拟器展示模型性能。学生模拟器不仅可以显示视觉效果，还可以显示手的运动力。所以学生可以追踪老师用镊子的痕迹。在手术模拟器上对这种力引导方法的有效性进行了评估。

In this research, a laparoscopic surgery training system in which one trainer can teach plural trainees was constructed, and the effectiveness of skill learning was verified. The system is constructed from plural surgical VR simulators interconnected over a network. On this system, one teaching surgeon can show a model performance simultaneously toplural student’s simulators. Not only a visual performance, but also motion force of hands can be shown on a student’s simulator. So a student can trace the handling of the teacher’s forceps. An evaluation of effectiveness of this force guidance method on a surgical simulator was done.
