Abstract:
The present invention relates to a virtual reality-based radiology practice apparatus and method in which the practiser is equipped with a head-mounted display (HMD), wears hand-mounted unit in the hands, manipulates virtual radiography equipment and performs virtual radiation practice in a virtual radiation practice environment provided on audiovisual virtual reality, and the hand motion controller receives the position and angle of the hands of the practiser from the hand-mounted unit, causes the virtual radiography equipment operate, and outputs specific results virtually as the virtual radiography equipment is operated.The virtual radiology practice apparatus of the present invention is characterized by comprising a HMD head-mounting unit, HMD hand-mounted unit, HMD controller, and main server that is detailed as follows: the HMD head-mounting unit that is mounted on the head of the practiser and outputs images containing virtual radiography equipment to the HMD image output unit for virtual radiology practice; the HMD hand-mounted unit that is mounted in the hands of the practiser and contains the hand movement detection unit which detects the hand movement signals of the practiser as the hands of the practiser move to manipulate the virtual radiography equipment on the image; the HMD controller that receives the hand movement signals from the HMD hand-mounted unit, sends it to the main server, and sends the image received from the main server to the HMD head-mounting unit; the main server that receives the hand movement signals from the HMD controller, moves the hand movement indicator which is the virtual hand of the practiser according to the hand movement signals on the image, and sends the image containing the moved hand movement indicator to the HMD controller.
