Description

Ramazan Bozkurt and four co-authors build a virtual reality trainer with touch feedback for first-year nursing students, in a pilot study from 2025. Virtual scenes let students practice skills safely, and wearable touch modules add realistic feel to hand movements. Several core skills were bundled into one system.

Development ran in three phases, from scenario writing and a game-engine world to linked sensors and gamified steps. Twenty students then rated how present they felt inside the scene. Skills covered assessment, vital signs, blood sugar, oxygen care, suction, tube placement, and injections. Most testers were first-year students, with mixed prior virtual reality exposure.
