Assistant Professor Sueyoshi and Professor Sugimoto received the Society Award at EAES2024

At the 32nd European Endoscopic Surgery Society 2024 32nd international congress of the European Association for Endoscopic Surgery (EAES) held in Maastricht (Netherlands) on June 11 (Tue) ~ 14 (Fri), 2024, Okinaga Research Institute of Teikyo University Innovation Lab Takuya Sueyoshi Assistant Professor and Maki Sugimoto, Professor of the same institute, gave a presentation entitled "Enhancing the Depth Perception of Robotic Surgeons: Development of a VR-HMD Visual System" and received the OR Ready Award.

The European Society for Endoscopic Surgery was founded in 1990 with the aim of promoting the scientific advancement and dissemination of Surgery and minimally invasive Surgery, and aims to promote the development of minimally invasive surgical techniques such as endoscopic surgery, laparoscopic surgery, and robot-assisted surgery, and to provide education and training in these techniques. The society regularly holds international conferences, building a network of experts and researchers in the field of endoscopic Surgery, including sharing the latest research results and techniques, and contributing to the standardization and quality improvement of Surgery surgery.
OR Ready is an international initiative in which medical professionals and organizations from around the world work together to improve the safety and outcomes of surgical patients. It calls on hospitals around the world to develop a safe surgical environment, contributing to improving patient safety.

The presentation for which Assistant Professor Sueyoshi received the award was about the development of a VR-HMD visual system using the domestically produced surgical support robot "SAROA" (Riverfield Corporation) to enhance the depth perception of robotic Surgery. This system displays 3D surgical images in real time on the VR-HMD, and is expected to improve Surgery 's immersive feeling and depth perception, and was recognized as part of the results of a joint research project between Okinaga Research Institute of Teikyo University and Riverfield. Upon receiving the award, Assistant Assistant Professor Sueyoshi said, "I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all those involved in this research. I will continue to promote research and educational activities at our institute and university." We look forward to Assistant Professor Sueyoshi's future success.
