Researchers at US university Purdue have developed an augmented reality (AR) system for medical students that simulates natural disasters and conflicts. The system uses a transparent headset screen display, which enables the practitioner to see the patient alongside real-time information. The technology is set for testing in a simulated battlefield based in a Virginia naval base.
