WILMINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sensable’s customers will feature prominently at the Medicine Meets Virtual Reality (MMVR) Conference in Newport Beach, California beginning tomorrow, where they will showcase innovative haptically-enabled surgical, medical simulation, rehabilitation and robotic applications developed using Sensable’s Phantom® force feedback haptic devices. Studies have shown that adding tactile feedback into image-guided surgical and simulation solutions can enhance proficiency, accuracy and dexterity for better prepared surgeons and better surgical outcomes. As a result, force feedback haptics technology has increasingly gained adoption in immersive training and simulation applications, and is now moving into diagnostics, patient-specific surgical planning, stroke rehabilitation and in robotically-controlled, minimally invasive procedures.
