Welcome to ReSSL
We develop hybrid surgical simulators
The Research Group for Surgical Simulators Linz at the University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria combines physical patient phantoms, real surgical instruments and virtual simulation into realistic and effective training for health professionals, medical scientists and engineers.
Try it · Feel it · Learn it
Mixed reality
Physical anatomy and virtual simulation work together, e.g. a simulated fluoroscopy that needs no X-ray radiation.
Real instruments
Trainees work with the same surgical instruments they use in the operating room, tracked and assessed by the simulator.
Realistic haptics
Artificial bones and soft tissues are validated against human specimens to feel like the real thing.
