Covid-19 - VR Strikes Back: innovative medical VR training
In this work, we present “Covid-19 VR Strikes Back” (CVRSB), a novel Virtual Reality (VR) medical training application focusing on a faster and more efficient teaching experience for medical personnel regarding the nasopharyngeal swab and the proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) donning and doffing. Our platform incorporates a diversity of innovations: a) techniques to avoid the uncanny valley observed in human representation and interactivity in VR simulations, b) exploitation of Geometric Algebra interpolation engine capabilities and c) supervised machine learning analytics module for real-time recommendations. Our application is publicly available at no cost for most Head Mount Displays (HMDs) and Desktop VR. The impact and effectiveness of our application is proved by recent clinical trials.
