MedCase
An engine for creating interactive clinical cases with emotionally responsive virtual patients.
Immersive simulations for healthcare training
MedCase simulations prepare healthcare professionals to make complex decisions and manage delicate conversations in real situations. Direct interaction in a realistic scenario, but without real risks, enables learners to deal with patient approach and management dynamics and to refine decision-making processes based on detailed and comprehensive feedback and scoring.
Branching stories system
The MedCase system, based on node storyboards, allows for the creation of complex branching stories where every decision influences the course of events, modifying objectives, scores, and future activities and options available. The simulations can be used on desktop, tablet, and VR headsets, and all choices, scores, objectives, and final results are recorded and reported in the final score. These stories are presented to the user through dialogues between realistic 3D characters, fully animated and capable of expressing emotions vividly and naturally.
Project Goal
MedCase aims to assess technical and socio-emotional skills in the healthcare field and was developed for Nume+, an Italian company that promotes medical innovation through training, communication, and cutting-edge information technologies.
With MedCase, Nume+ wins the ‘FCE Award 2024 (Innovation)’.
About MedCase
Paolo Lippi
Production Manager – Nume+
I had the opportunity in the past to appreciate Vincenzo’s rare abilities, and when Nume Plus needed a consultation and a team capable of creating 3D applications and VR, we had no doubts: WS was undoubtedly the right interlocutor. In fact, it was able to interpret our needs and accompany us throughout the entire process of realization with attention and proactivity. In a complex field like that of computer science, graphics, and so-called new technologies, they were able to combine creative invention, storyboarding skills, and mastery of programming and graphics. This is no small feat!
