Multiple angle viewer for remote medical training
Adriana Olmos, Kevin J. Lachapelle, Jeremy R. Cooperstock · 2010
We present the design of an interface for a camera array that will enable mentoring and monitoring of dissections and surgical procedures for medical instructors and students. While considerable research has investigated the recording and broadcasting of surgical procedures and dissection sessions for medical instruction, little work has been reported on the integration of an interface able to display multiple viewpoints within a medical context. The interface presented here allows a designated individual, the instructor, to provide the best viewing point to observe and execute a procedure, and simultaneously, offers the remote viewer the freedom to change viewpoints.
