hi guys, i actually am a plastic surgeon and i plan to make the first (at least to my knowledge) realistic surgical simulation (skin flaps, even tyhings more complicated as breast surgery etc).

i'm trying to figure out the concept of cutting the skin, losing skin flaps, or even add skin, all this dynamically. the visco-elastic model of the skin reaction is almost ready, but the graphical part isn't.

i also plan to use one or two virtual reality gloves to perform the surgery.

and ... yes, this will be a commercial soft.

special thx to skitchy, i'm going to check all this out after work.
