Customer

Our customer is an award-winning provider of medical training solutions that support healthcare institutions worldwide. The company has made a name for itself by developing impactful digital experiences for real-to-life clinical training.

Challenge

As part of the company’s development plan, our client decided to create their first VR application for multi-user medical education. They saw significant potential in VR technology to expand their digital product line, grow their customer base, and generate additional revenue.

According to the customer’s product idea, the solution was supposed to support immersive medical learning and training sessions in a virtual environment. Our customer needed a highly skilled team of Unity professionals that could smoothly cooperate with their in-house back-end development team, create VR environments for medical study, and ensure seamless interactions within the virtual setting. Due to our extensive hands-on experience and in-depth expertise in XR technology, HQSoftware was the choice to execute the project and accomplish its objectives.

Solution

In close collaboration with the customer’s development team, HQSoftware has engineered a top-tier VR healthcare solution for learning and training. The virtual reality app is compliant with Meta Quest 2 (Oculus Quest 2). The resulting solution has 3 user roles with the corresponding user rights:

  • Admin
  • Teacher
  • Student

Virtual reality in healthcare

The application allows conducting immersive medical lessons in virtual space for multiple students in real time. There are some VR environments, including the lobby and classrooms. Within the virtual reality app, students can study anatomy, learn the features of certain medical procedures, study theory, practice theoretical skills, etc. Teachers conduct and supervise the medical classes, control students’ performance, and more. For visual and immersive teaching, they can use versatile digital content, including 3D models, 2D pics, pdf files, traditional and immersive videos, etc.

Process

At the beginning of the project, our customer’s team provided all visual components for the future VR solution: an anatomy atlas in 3D, holographic medical assets, 360° videos of medical procedures, and in-app environment designs. The client also developed a backend for the application using the company’s internal resources.

VR for MRI

At the initial stage of the project, we developed the MVP using a mixed software development life cycle methodology. After the MVP release, we switched to the classic Scrum model with two-week sprints. Creation of the MVP with the main mechanics and functions took about 3 months. 

During the development of the MVP, the client team made significant changes to the backend, which caused additional challenges when creating the application. However, our team proved to be highly qualified specialists and promptly made the necessary adjustments thanks to top technical and communication skills.

Throughout the project, our team was responsible for the stabilization of the current build, and the development of new features and training modules. In cooperation with the customer’s back-end team, we designed a custom VR platform and executed model optimization: logic, interactive modules, launching a session for a single or joint experience, etc.

Technologies, platforms, and tools

C#, Unity, Photon Engine, AssetBundles, JSON, Oculus Quest 2

Team

  • 2 Unity developers
  • 1 QA engineer
  • 1 project manager
  • 1 UI/UX designer

Results

Throughout the project, our companies have formed a strong partnership. We’ve found extraordinary chemistry between the teams, which has had a positive impact on the development process and the final product’s quality. The client highly appreciates our technical expertise and the soft skills of the dedicated team members.

Currently, we are continuing our collaboration, enhancing the solution by developing new features, improving model designs, creating new virtual environments, and providing ongoing support.
