Hypocrates+ - A Virtual Reality Medical Education Platform with Intelligent Real-Time Help System.

Virtual reality, an immersing and interactive information communication technology, is changing the fundamental of medical education by creating more astonishing vivid realistic clinical environment and cases. Here, we proposed a virtual reality medical education platform with intelligent real-time emotion evaluation and help system, named Hypocrates+. By this platform, medical students can gain their medical knowledge and experience through well designed virtual clinical cases and environments with less frustration. Experiments shows that the overall mean frustration before getting the help was 0.53 and the mean frustration after was 0.50; better performance is related to lower frustration. We concluded that Hypocrates+ is a good start for developing a popular virtual medical education platform.
