BACKGROUND: Virtual reality (VR) simulators are increasingly being used for surgical skills training. It is unclear what skills are best improved via VR, translate to live surgical skills, and influence patient outcomes.
BACKGROUND: Stroke survivors often experience balance and gait problems, which can affect their quality of life and independence in daily living activities. Robot-assisted gait training, such as Lokomat with virtual reality, has been found to be effe...
Gaze estimation plays a critical role in human-centered vision applications such as human-computer interaction and virtual reality. Although significant progress has been made in automatic gaze estimation by deep convolutional neural networks, it is ...
Gaze estimation is an established research problem in computer vision. It has various applications in real life, from human-computer interactions to health care and virtual reality, making it more viable for the research community. Due to the signifi...
Seniors, in order to be able to fight loneliness, need to communicate with other people and be engaged in activities to keep their minds active to increase their social capital. There is an intensified interest in the development of social virtual re...
BACKGROUND: Medical students need to be prepared for various situations in clinical decision-making that cannot be systematically trained with real patients without risking their health or integrity. To target system-related limitations of actor-base...
The use of virtual reality for simulations plays an important role in the initial training for robotic surgery. This randomized controlled trial aimed to investigate the impact of educational video on the performance of robotic simulation. Participan...
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted therapy (RAT) and virtual reality (VR)-based neuromotor rehabilitation have shown promising evidence in terms of patient's neuromotor recovery, so far. However, still little is known on the perceived experience of use of ro...
BACKGROUND: In the field of neurorehabilitation, robot-assisted therapy (RAT) and virtual reality (VR) have so far shown promising evidence on multiple motor and functional outcomes. The related effectiveness on patients' health-related quality of li...
