A realistic two-handed surgical suturing simulation would have a broad impact on the way doctors are trained in the field of surgery. Current state-of-the-art in suturing simulators do not accurately represent realistic suturing conditions, leaving many necessary components, i.e. two-handed interaction, skin undermining, skin repositioning etc., out of the model completely. The goal of this research is to develop a next generation immersive suturing simulator that uses an integrated two-handed tension based haptic device for tactile feedback, a hi-fidelity finite element model for more accurate skin, tissue and needle modeling and stereoscopic vision for depth-of-field.
