Immersive medicine: How XR technology is transforming the healthcare industry

Whether as a virtual training system for medical professionals or in the maintenance of medical devices, virtual and augmented reality offer enormous potential to redefine the boundaries of possibilities and to revolutionize healthcare. Immersion in virtual environments and realistic simulations with VR, as well as augmenting the real world with digital information with AR, not only enable more efficient medical processes and workflows, but also improved patient care. Even in the development of medical devices, assessing the feasibility of prototypes in a virtual environment can reduce development risks, costs as well as time-to-market for the product

From virtual prototyping to digitization of training and service – this webinar gives an overview of various possible applications of AR and VR and, in addition to the opportunities, also shows which engineering challenges are involved. Learn from our experts which devices, methods and tools are recommended in XR development and what the current trends are in this area. We invite you to explore the future of healthcare with us.
