The Altair Robotics Lab at University of Verona, Italy has developed and is making available its Xron (pronounced qi ron) surgical simulator. The software is designed to simulate robotic and traditional laparoscopic procedures and includes a bunch of training games that will take you back to your toddler days. The virtual objects on the screen behave according to the laws of physics, dropping and moving naturally and reacting to instruments as real ones would. The system can take advantage of 3D monitors and will interface with a variety of input devices.
