Creating Some zSpace in the Medical Classroom

Like Conquer Mobile, zSpace is creating augmented reality and virtual reality tools to enhance education in medicine, even in regular classrooms.

Users have to wear a thin pair of polarized glasses with tracking sensors to view the virtual reality on a proprietary display and use a special stylus to interact with the reality presented. So, unlike the examples before, zSpace users don't get a 360-degree virtual reality experience.

The goal of Sunnyvale, CA-based ZSpace is to create an immersive experience for medical education. For instance, hospitals and teaching institutions can add or even replace their cadaver labs with the company's Gross Anatomy VR Lab, where users have access to more than 13,000 anatomical objects. Surgical trainees can also practice surgical procedures using the company's tools and software.
