Der Countdown für die 6. International VR Awards für Innovatoren und Pioniere, die die VR-Branche im Jahr 2022 vorantreiben, läuft. PrecisionOS fühlt sich geehrt, von der Academy of International Extended Reality (AIXR) als Finalist in der Kategorie VR Healthcare ausgewählt worden zu sein.
Als Finalist für den VR Healthcare of the Year Award wird PrecisionOS für die Erstellung eines chirurgischen Trainingsmoduls ausgezeichnet, das speziell auf die Bedürfnisse von SIGN Frakturversorgung, eine globale gemeinnützige humanitäre Organisation, die sich auf die Verbesserung der orthopädischen Frakturversorgung in Ländern mit geringen Ressourcen konzentriert. PrecisionOS ging das Problem teurer chirurgischer Schulungen durch die Entwicklung einer immersiven Bildungssoftwareplattform an, die von einem kostengünstigen und tragbaren Virtual-Reality-(VR)-Headset, The Meta Quest, unterstützt wird.
With PrecisionOS’ Virtual Reality SIGN IM Nail & Interlocking Screw System module, SIGN Fracture Care can now free up precious resources, enabling them to move more rapidly towards its goal of creating equality in fracture care around the globe. By using the PrecisionOS module to educate local surgeons to render care for patients in their home communities, SIGN Fracture Care can build much-needed sustainable orthopedic capacity and improve the quality of life and longevity for people in low- income countries around the world, including Cambodia, Ethiopia and the war-ravaged Ukraine.
PrecisionOS’ modules permit individual decision-making, allowing the trainee to try different approaches to the surgical procedure, and giving them performance and technical feedback until they are comfortable performing the procedure. The training modules encourage trial and error—a critical difference from competitive VR solutions.
The International VR Awards were founded by AIXR on the principle of celebrating outstanding achievement in virtual reality and each year they recognise innovators and pioneers who are driving the VR Industry. To see the full list and more information can be found here.
Über PrecisionOS
PrecisionOS was founded in partnership with clinical orthopedic surgeon educators and an expert group of XR developers to create simulation training for practicing surgeons, residents and surgical device representatives. Participants using PrecisionOS modules engage in a realistic operating environment, alone or in collaboration with other trainees anywhere in the world, test their knowledge and desire to try alternate approaches, receive instructive feedback and repeat procedures until achieving proficiency. With InVision, a patient specific planning tool, the company is expanding into the provision of next generation products for preoperative surgery, simulation training and education. PrecisionOS is based in Vancouver, BC, with collaborative affiliations with more than 50 major medical institutions in the U.S. and Canada. The company’s software is being used in more than 60 countries and 700 cities globally.
