Enhancing IV Insertion Skill Training: Integrating Bimanual Haptic Feedback in Mixed Reality.
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc
July 2024
In this study, we present the development of an advanced bimanual intravenous (IV) needle insertion simulation system, leveraging the capabilities of mixed reality and haptic feedback technologies. The system offers an immersive experience by simulating real-world variability in a clinic environment. Our approach involves the integration of an exoskeleton haptic glove for left-hand interaction with a virtual patient's hand and a modified stylus haptic device for performing IV needle insertion into a virtual vein, visualized through the HoloLens 2 device.
