In this project, we conducted a benchmarking of Lapsim, an advanced surgical simulator, to create a Laparoscopic cholecystectomy exercise—surgical removal of the gall bladder located beneath the liver. This was achieved by leveraging the open-source engine SOFA and further enhancing it through the integration of haptic feedback using openHaptics, in conjunction with the Phantom Omni Hand manipulator.
