Virtual Reality May Offer Advances in Microscope Imaging

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
A novel microscope image injection system has demonstrated the ability to relay virtual reality imaging to a surgeon through an eyepiece, known as the ocular, during microscopic surgery. The system, named CaptiView, allows images to be superimposed into the surgeon’s eyepiece and projects a heads-up display into the eyepiece while the surgeon is operating. The heads-up display provides neurovascular and fiber-track information in 2D or 3D as well as the on-screen video overlays visible through the ocular. CaptiView overlays critical virtual reality imaging directly onto the...Read full article

    virtual reality
    Virtual reality (VR) is a computer-generated simulation of a three-dimensional environment or experience that can be interacted with and explored by an individual using electronic devices, such as a headset with a display. VR aims to create a sense of presence, immersing users in a computer-generated world that can be entirely fictional or a replication of the real world. It often involves the use of specialized hardware and software to provide a fully immersive and interactive experience. ...
