PHANTOM prototype: exploring the potential for learning with multimodal features in dentistry

Published: 20 October 2008 Publication History

Abstract

In this paper, we will demonstrate how force feedback, motion-parallax, and stereoscopic vision can enhance the opportunities for learning in the context of dentistry. A dental training workstation prototype has been developed intended for use by dental students in their introductory course to preparing a tooth cavity. The multimodal feedback from haptics, motion tracking cameras, computer generated sound and graphics are being exploited to provide 'near-realistic' learning experiences. Whilst the empirical evidence provided is preliminary, we describe the potential of multimodal interaction via these technologies for enhancing dental-clinical skills.
