A Wii bit of technology for surgeons
ASU bioinformatics professor Kanav Kahol has developed a training program for surgeons, using a Nintendo Wii game console. Kahol says surgeons who warmed up using a Wii game called Marble Mania performed strikingly better in a simulated surgery than those who didn’t. “You can either design applications that replace humans or ones that work with humans. Wii is based on human skills,” says Kahol. Article source: Arizona Republic
