LapAR™
All the soft tissue models and 3D printed moulds were 3D digitally sculpted and CAD modelled using Zbrush and Solidworks by myself for Inovus Medical. They were created for the "LapAR™" simulators working closely with the simulator designers and engineers to ensure they fit within the unit. The cast in electronic triggers are also designed seamlessly to connect with the VR components causing "VR" bleeds on screen when physically cut by the surgeon.
"LapAR™ is the world’s first ‘high fidelity laparoscopic box trainer’, bringing together the realism of expensive VR and the affordability of box trainer simulation, truly democratising access to high fidelity laparoscopic simulation and pre-operative warm up."

Bozzini® Hysteroscopy & HystAR™ Simulator Uterus and pathology re-design
Work was undertaken by myself to redesign the uterus models to improve the internal realism of the model for the vaginal canal, cervix, internal and external OS and Uterus along with improving the shapes of the pathologies such as polyps and fibroids using Zbrush, Solidworks and 3D printed mould designs.
"The bozzini® Hysteroscopy Simulator by Inovus Medical is a world first in the delivery of close to life, affordable, turnkey hysteroscopy simulation. The simulator offers an anatomically correct uterus with interchangeable pathologies for practising diagnosis and intraoperative management. Pathologies include endometrial polyps, intrauterine adhesions and endometrial cancer/fibroid. The pathologies offer real to life tissue handling and are a low-cost way of delivering repeated practice of these core hysteroscopic skills. The uterus can be positioned in an anteverted and retroverted orientation allowing trainees to experience the different approach needed for each."
