Data-Glove Based Interactive Training System for Virtual Delivery Operation

In traditional midwifery training, medical students and nurses used to operate plastic models to learn the delivery course. Also they can learn from lectures and operations´ probation . However, in these ways, they does not completely understand the complicated course happening in lying-in woman´s uterus. We suppose an interactive training way, using the data glove to operate the virtual hand for midwifery training in the delivery simulation. Our simulation includes virtual hand and delivery environment. Virtual hand is constructed by dividing hand model method. Delivery environment is constructed using the human´s CT data and controlling curves, in interns of the delivery-law. This interactive training system can get life-like and real-time effect, and can train the trainees in impression-profound way.
