XR Salento brings together researchers, developers, and technology communities from several countries to share the latest research in extended reality (XR) and artificial intelligence (AI).
During his presentation, Haakon showcased a VR solution developed through the POSI-red research project, led by Norconsult in close collaboration with the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim. The solution is designed to visualize airflow and particle dispersion in operating rooms.
Strong Reception from International Research Communities
The project was very well received by conference participants, who largely consisted of researchers and academic professionals.
The conference also provided valuable insight into how XR and AI technologies are being adopted internationally.
“I was surprised by the wide range of applications these technologies have gained internationally. At the same time, it was inspiring to see that through the collaboration between Norconsult, Norconsult Digital, NTNU, and Norwegian hospitals, we are truly at the forefront of this field,” he says.
Haakon believes the project attracted significant interest because it combines XR, AI, and simulation technology to address a concrete challenge in healthcare.
