Article Synopsis
  • * A new Mixed-Reality (MR) childbirth simulator was developed using HyperMSM technology to offer realistic soft-tissue deformations, user-friendly interactions, and performance assessments with real-time biofeedback.
  • * The simulator features a complete holographic obstetric model and includes scenarios for both physiological and forceps-assisted labor, achieving a real-time performance refresh rate of 30-50 FPS on the HoloLens 2 device.
