Training medical professionals in Orthopedics faces several technical challenges. The equipment required for practical, hands-on training is often restricted to operating rooms. This constraint presents a significant issue, as developing the necessary skills to perform surgeries requires substantial practice time. This work developed a virtual training model using mixed reality, using a QR code to generate a virtual opaque hemisphere, within which the user operates two virtual tools that simulate an endoscope and a drill. A virtual monitor displays the endoscope’s view to the user, who must then navigate the drill tip to successfully touch specific target cubes. The application has the potential to significantly enhance the orthopedic learning experience by reducing the time and resources.
