Commissioned by the World Hearing Center in Kajetany (Poland), we developed an educational app designed to explain the process of ear surgery and cochlear implant placement. The main goal was to create a training tool that clearly presents complex otolaryngological procedures in a user-friendly way.
The app uses highly detailed 3D anatomical models and biomechanical animations to illustrate each stage of the procedure. Users can engage with a range of interactive training modules and instructional animations that help them deeply understand the surgical steps involved.
Each user action is carefully tracked – if a gesture is performed incorrectly, it can be adjusted and corrected. The entire project was developed under the supervision of medical specialists, ensuring that the content remains accurate and aligned with real-world medical protocols.
The app was designed for broad accessibility and is available across five major operating systems: Windows, macOS, Windows Phone, iOS, and Android.
Although VR was still in its early stages at the time this project was developed, today such simulations would be a natural fit for medical education using virtual reality. The combination of VR and interactive surgical training offers powerful potential for educating medical professionals and students alike.
