Abstract

A new platform for laparoscopic training and education is presented. Fundamental requirements about a flexible haptic interface, specter of training areas, skill assessment, educational content, and level of realism are presented and discussed. The new system, including a new and flexible haptic interface and a broad specter of training modules combined with the use of multimedia content, is described.
