Virtual Reality in Veterinary
Dr Chris shares some nerdy thoughts on how Virtual Reality may impact the veterinary sector.
Animal Realities
The future of veterinary medicine is one that embraces a range of emerging technologies, from Virtual and Augmented Reality to Artificial Intelligence.
Virtual Reality in Veterinary
Virtual Reality offers the potential to completely transform how we learn, train and experience aspects of the world that would otherwise be impossible to do so. VR has been a feature of healthcare training for many years, with all the indications being that the pace of adoption and application of this immersive medium to the healthcare sector, including veterinary, is only going to accelerate as the benefits of the tech being clearer.
VR in Healthcare
Virtual Reality is already used extensively across a number of sectors for training and education. Healthcare too has already embraced VR. Join Dr Chris Shivelton Queen as he takes you on a journey looking at how VR is currently being used in healthcare and where the future may be taking us.
VR and AR in Veterinary
Spatial computing, which incorporates both Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) - collectively referred to as Mixed Realty (MR) - is rapidly moving from the realms of science fiction into fact, providing those in healthcare with exciting and interesting new tools for everything from collaboration to education and training. Whilst there are a number of case examples of MR being employed within the human medical sector, it’s use remains in it’s infancy within the veterinary sector.
VR in Healthcare: Not Just For Humans
Virtual Reality (VR) is not all about gaming. It is being and can be used in a whole host of manners to bring about positive change in the world. Healthcare is one sector where the benefits of VR are already being demonstrated and appreciated, with veterinary and animal-based activities included.
A Healthy Dose of Reality - VR & AR in Healthcare
Healthcare is one sector where Virtual and Augmented Reality technology is predicted to make a big impact. From treatment & rehabilitation, to diagnostics & medical planning, right through to medical training, including client and patient education, spatial computing promises to change many facets of healthcare.
