Description
Motivation and application domain
Simulations of systems for collecting physiological signals are useful in many contexts: they allow to train healthcare providers on their use without employing real instruments; furthermore, they replicate the recording of uncommon pathological signs, being valuable educational tools
General objectives and main activities
The goal of this project is to adapt an electromyography (EMG) simulator, designed at Medical Engineering lab of the University of Navarra, Spain, to the virtual environment.
After analyzing the main features of the EMG simulator, the students will be required to replicate its functioning in the virtual environment (e.g. Unity, Unreal), to create a virtual replica. In addition, a Mixed Reality solution combining the physcial and virtual simulators can be designed and developed.
