This is an old repository of the VIDAOdonto projects, focused on the Haptic Syringe. Unfortunately, I can’t provide the latest updates on the project here, but once I have them, I will add them to this README.
As part of the INTERLAB-PCS projects, which aim to use technology to democratize access to educational tools, the VIDAOdonto project,developed in partnership with the Instituto de Odontologia da USP, has the goal of creating immersive tools to facilitate the study of odontology.
Several students have contributed to the project so far to bring it to its current state. My contribution was the development of features in the Anatomy Module and the improvement of the Haptic Syringe, an immersive tool that costs about 20x less than similar products currently available on the market.
This project is important because odontology is a course with very expensive training requirements. Any procedure that can be practiced “for free” represents a significant benefit for students.
This repository contains only a test scene for the firmware.
