SURGICAL BURR HOLE DRILLING SIMULATOR

Title:

SURGICAL BURR HOLE DRILLING SIMULATOR

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/019464

Kind Code:

A3

Abstract:

A system, method and device for simulating a medical procedure include a haptic mechanism controllable to provide feedback to a user manipulating a medical device. In an embodiment, a pair of three degree of freedom haptic devices are coupled to provide six degree of freedom measurement and force/moment feedback to the user. The six degree of freedom haptic device may be configured to provide different resolutions for different degrees of freedom, depending on simulation requirements. In an embodiment, a load cell is used to provide higher resolution in a dimension determined to be of greater criticality to realistic simulation.
