Their company’s comprehensive education solutions include next generation surgical simulators and learning management systems.

Their simulators immerse surgeons in a 3D operating environment where they can practice complicated procedures on their patients by loading CT/MRI scans of the patient into the simulator. ImmersiveTouch’s patented haptic technology allows resident students to touch and feel the 3D anatomy, which allows students to perfect their surgical skills. Many surgeons who have interacted with ImmersiveTouch simulators say that it is similar to conducting real surgery. ImmersiveTouch’s mission is to provide surgeons with patient specific medical solutions, provide educators with training solutions, and continually advance haptic technology.
