Virtual Reality in Veterinary

Virtual Reality offers the potential to completely transform how we learn, train and experience aspects of the world that would otherwise be impossible to do so. VR has been a feature of healthcare training for many years, with all the indications being that the pace of adoption and application of this immersive medium to the healthcare sector, including veterinary, is only going to accelerate as the benefits of the tech being clearer.

VR and AR in Veterinary

Spatial computing, which incorporates both Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) - collectively referred to as Mixed Realty (MR) - is rapidly moving from the realms of science fiction into fact, providing those in healthcare with exciting and interesting new tools for everything from collaboration to education and training. Whilst there are a number of case examples of MR being employed within the human medical sector, it’s use remains in it’s infancy within the veterinary sector.
