When we close our eyes and imagine the future of medical simulation technologies, we see 3D animated experiences so realistic we can’t even tell virtual patients aren’t real, haptic devices which make us believe we are touching medical equipment, and communication so authentic we would never be able to tell it was a computer mainframe [...]

While healthcare simulation can be accomplished without the latest high-fidelity manikin or a/v recording system, the prevelance of innovative technologies in the field is obvious. Today then, we share a few of the latest “wow” technologies that we think will one day have massive relevance to medical simulation, increasing realism and improving learning outcomes. From [...]
