FundamentalVR Simulates Soft Tissue With Haptics for Medical Education

Found in News and Content

Thanks to advances in kinesthetic haptic technology, cadavers in surgical training could be replaced by robotics, augmented reality, and virtual reality. FundamentalVR last week announced additions in its Fundamendal Surgery platform that it said provide “a credible complement and alternative to traditional medical education methods.” “We are proud to offer industry-leading technology proven to accelerate learning and transform traditional teaching…

…AI-powered brains, and dexterous, smart haptic grippers or “hands”. The robot uses these new enhanced capabilities to do tasks as humans do them. These intelligent machines can compute what items to pick and how to grab them successfully, using touch to recognize pressure, texture, temperature, and proximity. AI-powered robots are using these smart senses to supplement labor in facilities that…

…automate their supply chain or logistics operations. We’ve developed a first-of-its-kind haptic intelligence platform for robots – this enables our robot to handle hard-to-automate tasks that typically require human-level-dexterity and involve manipulating thousands of SKUs. Our robots possess higher levels of dexterity, cognitive skills, and autonomy than today's robots and operate in unstructured environments.
