Biomedical engineers can be trained on virtual system

New training method to help engineers learn how to fix and maintain equipment systems


A new multiple ee-configurable training system (MRTS) can remotely teach biomedical engineers who work at healthcare facilities how to fix and maintain equipment systems, according to an article on the Medical Device and Diagnostic Industry website.

MRTS is a simulator that allows biomedical engineers to learn and repeat tasks on a variety of medical systems using a touch-sensitive screen. 

The simulator is in a mobile training center that can be stationed in convenient locations. This cuts down on the need for travel and makes training more accessible and cost-effective.

Field engineers in different locations sit together in a virtual classroom, learning from an instructor via distance learning video conferencing.
