[ Solutions we provided ]

A highly skilled team of Onix specialists followed a structured development process to build a VR medical training application using Unity Engine.

The app was developed for the Meta Quest headset. The application enables medical assistants to learn and practice patient care techniques in an interactive virtual environment.

Users are guided through the simulation by a virtual trainer, performing a series of predefined steps. The system includes a variety of tools and three operation modes: teaching, training, and execution. The step-by-step process ensures compliance with healthcare industry regulations while allowing users to gain hands-on experience safely.

The main challenge was designing a highly accurate and customizable training system that mimics real-life conditions. Our team leveraged VR interaction tools and real-time data tracking to create a robust and adaptable training module.

An intuitive training system

Users receive step-by-step guidance through medical procedures, ensuring consistency and accuracy.

The virtual trainer provides real-time feedback, enhancing learning efficiency.

Multi-mode functionality

In Teaching Mode, users receive detailed instructions and visual demonstrations to familiarize themselves with the procedures.

Training Mode enables them to practice with interactive feedback to correct real-time mistakes.

Finally, Execution Mode requires users to complete the task independently, providing an opportunity for assessment and skill validation.

Progress tracking

The progress tracking feature records each user`s performance throughout their training journey.

This allows instructors to evaluate learning outcomes effectively and adapt training as needed.

Users can also review past performances, identify areas for improvement, and track their progress over time using data-driven insights.

Advanced VR interaction tools

The application incorporates advanced VR interaction tools, allowing users to engage with various medical equipment and objects in a realistic virtual environment.

The simulation accurately mimics real-world patient care conditions, ensuring that trainees develop hands-on experience that closely mirrors clinical practice.

Core technology stack we used

Unity,

Oculus Quest / Quest 2,

VRTK

[ Results ]

Thanks to our collaboration, our client now has an advanced virtual reality training solution for medical assistants.

The application significantly enhances training efficiency, reduces costs, and improves skill retention by offering an engaging, hands-on learning experience.

This modern approach to medical training eliminates the limitations of traditional methods, such as the need for physical training facilities or live patient interactions.

By leveraging VR, trainees can practice complex procedures in a safe and controlled environment, receive real-time feedback, and repeat simulations as often as needed.

The result? Faster learning curves, fewer errors, and better-prepared medical professionals entering the workforce.
