"High-accuracy VR surgical training — improved retention and real-world confidence"

NipsApp Game Studios developed a realistic VR medical surgery training platform with detailed anatomical models, AI-guided workflows, and haptic feedback. Students and healthcare professionals reported better understanding and retention of complex procedures, with increased confidence and reduced real-world errors. The team delivered on time, communicated well, and demonstrated deep knowledge of medical workflows and VR technology.
