For example, in the new version, surgicalresidents now can practice more steps in determining shoulder instability, orcompleting knee meniscetomies. The new version also adds more virtualinstruments that the user can access during practice scenarios, including atissue manipulator, basket grasper and anchors. All insightArthroVR instrumentsare touch-enabled so that the surgical resident can master their use underrealistic scenarios. GMV joins numerous other SensAble OEMs who are touch-enabling advanced medicaland surgical simulation applications using SensAble`s haptic devices andsoftware toolkit. With 41 patents and over 7,000 haptic devices shipped to date across a widerange of industries, SensAble allows simulation providers to incorporate therealistic "feelings" of anatomical objects and surgical procedures into theirproducts. "When surgeons can`t rely on their eyes to guide them through specific aspectsof surgical procedures, knowing how things should feel is paramount to impartingaccuracy and confidence in students learning all kinds of skills related toblind surgical procedures," said David Chen, Ph D., chief technology officer ofSensAble Technologies.
