“We have worked with ORamaVR and our residents absolutely love training with the platform. This has really been good for our training, I am really trying to interest all my colleagues and training centers that this is necessary for them to make their residents better.”
“This was magnificent, it was really like live surgery. It is very easy to use, I would definitely promote it.”
“VR is the future of medical education and we are pushing further the limits with ORamaVR and Creator.”
“Quite a fascinating teaching tool. It allows us to take residents through the case step by step without a cadaver or a book, a medium that they understand and can appreciate.”
“Very nice experience and it will be very fruitful for young surgeons. It’s a great tool and helpful for the training.”
“Creator has streamlined our pipeline incredibly. The development and feedback loop has been so tight that in about one month we had a full-blown teaching tool.”
“Thanks to its high-quality toolset and capabilities, the Creator has allowed us to create and author simulations in a very time and resource efficient manner.”
“Creator allowed us to create VR content with minimal effort.”
“Train anywhere, any time. Minimal equipment required for simulating the whole robotic experience.”
