Why Cleveland Owns the Future of Virtual Reality
Using HoloLens, CWRU’s Interactive Commons developed HoloAnatomy Software Suite… And results were promising. In a study published in Medical Science Educator in November 2019, students were shown to grasp concepts twice as fast using HoloAnatomy as they would with 2D models.
“We took one of the oldest classes that you can imagine, human anatomy, and in a period of about five years, we went from hundreds of years of history to teaching in this new way,” Griswold says.
In the time since, 17 schools, including one as far as Poland as well as the United Kingdom’s esteemed Oxford University, have adopted curriculums featuring the HoloAnatomy Software Suite.
“We’ve been given this opportunity to lead the world in this area. As a region, we can adopt this as our future,” Griswold says. “We should be amazingly proud as a city.”
