CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Level Ex, creator of industry-leading medical video games for physicians and surgeons, has announced the launch of its newest product, Virtual Technique Guides™. Sales representatives can continue their video conversation over the web conferencing platform of their choice with Virtual Technique Guides integrated into the experience. Using the state-of-the-art in 3D visual effects, Virtual Technique Guides support thousands of medical procedures in all 27 surgical specialties and subspecialties featuring: • Accurate tissue simulation that moves and responds realistically to user interaction • Visualizations in real-time under visible light, X-ray, ultrasound, CT, and MRI • Ability to replicate a full range of device movements down to the micrometer with multiple degrees of freedom Proven to facilitate knowledge transfer and improve skill, Virtual Technique Guides allow surgeons, sales representatives, and trainers to step into a virtual operating room to synchronously learn and reciprocate tasks between each other without having to be in the same physical space. In 2019, we saw the next opportunity to transcend the limitations of smartphone hardware: we began making substantial investments in cloud-gaming technology to enable more realistic simulation by leveraging compute resources in the cloud,” said Sam Glassenberg, founder and CEO of Level Ex. We had the capability to recreate that critical training dynamic between the surgeon and their sales rep seen in the physical OR.” Over the past year, Level Ex has recruited many of the top technologists and creatives from the video games industry—several of whom were instrumental in developing these new products.
