Title:

Collaborative, Distributed, Multi-User Healthcare Training for Remote Environments Using Virtual Reality

Agreement Number:

982635

Agreement Value:

$503,000.00

Agreement Date:

Nov 15, 2021 - Mar 31, 2023

Description:

The provision of healthcare is often a team sport with multiple healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of a patient. It is therefore critical, when we provide medical training, to allow for multiple users to be involved collaboratively in the training scenario, either to provide guidance during training or as part of a collaborative care team. The CaregiVR training and assessment platform currently provides a single user experience with virtual autonomous patients. The goal of this project is to integrate the capability for distributed, multiuser collaboration into CaregiVR.
