Claim Text:
1. A system for simulating a bone implant surgery comprising: a display showing a simulated implant site on a virtual living body, a simulated bone implant, a model corresponding to the virtual living body, a simulated surgical tool, and a toolkit providing at least one tool for the simulated surgical tool, wherein the model corresponding to the virtual living body includes data specific to a particular patient; a first hand-held haptic device corresponding to the simulated surgical tool; a second hand-held haptic device that simulates an anatomical feature corresponding to the simulated implant site on the virtual living body, the second haptic device acting as a surgical site orientor; and at least one controller communicating with the display, the first hand-held haptic device, and the second hand-held haptic device and configured to cause: movement of the simulated surgical tool on the display based on motions of the first hand-held haptic device, movement of the simulated implant site and the anatomical feature corresponding to the virtual living body on the display based on motions of the first and second haptic devices, and haptic feedback to a user holding the first hand-held haptic device and the second hand-held haptic device depending on positioning of the simulated surgical tool and the simulated implant site on the display and the at least one tool selected.
