Development of Simulation System for Medical Education

Abstract

Takanishi lab aim to develop a patient robot for medical training. We regard two functions of the patient robot as important for effective trainings: function to simulate the physical features and the scenarios of various patients and function to evaluate the validity of diagnosis and treatment to the robot. We have been developing such patient robots for each region and we are going to develop a whole-body patient robot by integrating them.
