Abstract
Medical surgeries in various specialities have been recently enhanced by modern devices with 3D vision for the surgeon. By transferring this 3D vision in high quality and with low latency to distant locations, we can enable novel collaborative teaching programs for medical students and doctors, also allowing remote interaction with the surgeon.
We describe our experience with real-time long-distance stereoscopic transmissions of medical surgeries using a system for low latency streaming over packet networks. We discuss options for 3D transmission, 3D projection and experience of users that took part in multiple demonstrational transmissions.
