Development of Web-Integrated Extended Reality Applications in Medical Care
Abstract
Extended reality applications in medical learning offer an innovative and immersive approach to enhancing educational experiences with complex data. This thesis delves into the role of multimodal reality applications within anatomical education, surgical supervision, and data visualization. Our primary goal is to examine the development frameworks of these applications and their integration with traditional web applications and cloud services while assessing their feasibility and efficacy. To accomplish this, we developed three distinct projects, each utilizing a different modality of extended reality technology. Our findings reveal that, although challenges exist in implementation and adapting to specific environments, these applications demonstrate significant potential. The development frameworks described alleviate significant challenges in developing extended reality applications to overcome platform constraints and create complex interconnected systems.
