TRACKING SYSTEM

摘要

The present simulated medical instrument is adapted for insertion in a channel of a body cavity simulator. The present simulated medical instrument comprises a tube and at least one tracking device. The tube comprises a proximal end and a distal end. The tube is sized and shaped for insertion in the channel of the body cavity simulator. The at least one tracking device is positioned at the distal end of the tube. The tracking device has a pattern detectable via camera. The tracking device is adapted for receiving friction caused by a dynamic haptic mechanism positioned along at least a section of the channel of the body cavity simulator.

1. A simulated medical instrument for insertion in a channel of a body cavity simulator, comprising:
a tube comprising a proximal end and a distal end, the tube being sized and shaped for insertion in the channel of the body cavity simulator; and at least one tracking device located in proximity of the distal end of the tube, the tracking device including a corresponding pattern specific to the tracking device and detectable via camera when the tracking device is inserted into the channel of the body cavity simulator, the tracking device being adapted for receiving friction caused by a dynamic haptic mechanism positioned along at least a section of the channel of the body cavity simulator.
