OPENSURGSIM

Medical Simulation Software Development Platform


Building Competency in Surgeons

If you are creating or building a high fidelity surgical simulator with haptic capability, our advanced open-source development software, OpenSurgSim, can help you get there faster.

OpenSurgSim is a physics-based simulation platform offering an immersive desktop environment for surgical training tool development. It allows developers to build and deploy simulators that teach surgical skills, thus enhancing the quality of training.

OpenSurgSim will provide the ability to create physics-based simulations in immersive desktop-type environments. In an OpenSurgSim-based simulator, users will be able to hold actual surgical tools attached to haptics interface devices while watching a stereo display of the physics-based interaction of the tools with the simulated tissues. 

The platform’s many features include the following:  

• High fidelity tissue interactions
  
• Lifelike haptic feedback
  
• Actual surgical tool usage and manipulation
  
• Simulator development foundation
  
• Realistic graphics
  
• Tracking
  
• Comprehensive metrics
  
• Minimally invasive and open surgical capabilities
  
• One, two and three dimensional objects
  
• FEM and mass spring systems

OpenSurgSim 

• Saves time and money by eliminating the need to start from scratch and saving several person-years of development time
  
• Is open-source and free to use 
  
• Supports a range of solutions from low-cost off-the-shelf hardware to specialized custom interface devices
  

Use OpenSurgSim as your foundation to create complete surgical simulations.
