Outline of Final Research Achievements

An achievement survey was performed by evaluating three sample groups: control (traditional exhibition with no AR support), tablet AR, and HMD AR, consisting of a total of 80 medical students. Each subject visited pathological specimens at their own pace and subsequently completed a pathology knowledge test and a questionnaire survey. No significant difference was found in the evaluation items between the tablet AR and the HMD AR, suggesting that AR information contents might provide a stronger effect than the differences in the device. We adopted the method of multiple markers in the system. As a result, the system was able to present AR information even for 3D or large specimens. In addition, the system with an optical see-through HMD was improved by automating label placement. An evaluation experiment was conducted by medical students. The results of the study indicated that the system with an optical see-through HMD was effective.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

医学標本に対する効率的で効果的な学習環境が実現でき、医学の初学者教育および入学前教育に貢献することが可能となる。実物の標本を介した医学教材は、説明としてまとめられた抽象的概念と眼前の標本から得られる具体的概念とを、統合的に獲得する機会を提供する。本研究での成果で実現される機能は、医学標本のみならず、実物の人体・博物館・美術館などにもそのまま応用することが可能であり、適応範囲は広い。
