==EXTENDED REALITY TRAINING PLATFORM - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240029367 titled 'EXTENDED REALITY TRAINING PLATFORM

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a method using augmented reality (AR) to determine the location of a physical model and overlay a holographic body onto the model. The holographic body is aligned with the physical model, allowing a user to interact with the model using a physical medical instrument to simulate a predetermined procedure. Haptic feedback is provided to the user during the procedure.

* The method involves:
    * Determining the location of a physical model using an AR control application.
    * Displaying a holographic body overlaying the physical model via a display device.
    * Aligning the holographic body with the physical model, so that a portion of the model representing an anatomical structure appears aligned with the holographic body in a predetermined anatomical position.
    * Maintaining real-time alignment of the holographic body on the display device while the user interacts with the physical model using a physical medical instrument.
    * Providing haptic feedback to the user during the predetermined procedure.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Medical training and education: The method can be used to simulate medical procedures and provide hands-on training for medical professionals.
* Surgical planning: Surgeons can use the method to visualize and plan surgical procedures on a physical model before performing them on a patient.
* Patient education: The holographic overlay can be used to explain medical conditions and procedures to patients in a more interactive and visual manner.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Lack of realistic simulation: The method provides a more realistic simulation of medical procedures by overlaying a holographic body onto a physical model, allowing users to practice and learn in a more immersive environment.
* Limited access to physical models: The method allows users to interact with physical models remotely using AR technology, overcoming limitations of physical availability and transportation.
* Inadequate feedback during training: The haptic feedback provided during the procedure enhances the training experience by providing tactile sensations, improving the user's understanding and skill development.

Benefits of this technology:

* Enhanced training and education: The method offers a more engaging and realistic training experience, improving the learning outcomes for medical professionals and students.
* Improved surgical planning: Surgeons can visualize and plan procedures more accurately, leading to better surgical outcomes and reduced risks.
* Enhanced patient understanding: The holographic overlay helps patients better understand their medical conditions and the procedures they may undergo, improving patient satisfaction and compliance.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

examples described herein provide a method including determining a model location of a physical model by an augmented reality (ar) control application; operating the ar control application to display a holographic body overlaying the physical model via a display device, wherein the holographic body is aligned with the physical model such that a portion of the physical model representing an anatomical structure appears aligned with the holographic body in a predetermined anatomical position; maintaining alignment of the holographic body overlaying the physical model on the display device in real-time while a user interacts with the physical model using a physical medical instrument to simulate a predetermined procedure; and providing haptic feedback to the user during the predetermined procedure.
