Major Acadicus Virtual Simulation Update
A major update is coming soon to Acadicus, including tons of new virtual simulation and training content!
Non-VR Windows PC users can now interact within a growing number of education simulations, completing various tasks and interactions without the use of a VR headset. VR and non-VR users can be together simultaneously in multiplayer simulations.
Content Previews
Stay tuned for more information and demos as these simulations are completed and added to the Acadicus Shared Library.
Heart Block Visualization
Respiratory Therapy
Endotracheal Intubation
Nursing Scenarios
ECG Lead Placement
Human Muscle Anatomy
Wound Treatment
EMS / Paramedic Dynamic Cardiology
Neonatal Intensive Care
Multiple Casualty Incident
Manifold Gauge
Veterinary Anatomy
Acadicus Pro Space subscribers can work with our expansive Shared Content Library of Assets, Characters, and Environments to create their own simulations, host their own Multiplayer simulations, create their own 3D recorded demonstrations, or sponsor the development of custom content specifically tailored to their objectives.
Feature Updates
Non-VR Updates
Since the onset of COVID-19, interest in Non-VR interactivity has increased substantially. Based on this feedback, we have pivoted from an exclusive VR focus toward increased Non-VR compatibility. A variety of interactions can be completed by participants using Acadicus in Non-VR mode, enabling remote participation from learners and faculty that don’t have access to VR headsets.
360 Screenshot Capture
360 screenshots can now be captured in both VR and Non-VR mode. This enables Acadicus to be used to stage various simulation activities that can be utilized in software like H5P to create browser-based training scenarios. The 360 screenshot taker can be detached from the user, then triggered at any time from the menu.
Avatar Update
This update includes a new avatar system, no longer using Oculus avatars, which set the stage for expanded compatibility to additional headsets, along with a variety of customizations and improvements going into the future.
