Innovate UK, the UK’s innovation agency, awards funding to Sentira for a cloud-based VR and AI medical training initiative
MANCHESTER, UK TUESDAY 31st JANUARY 2023
Sentira, a pioneer in the field of VR and AI virtual reality medical training has announced that it has been awarded a highly competitive UK-South Korea Collaborative R&D Grant from Innovate UK, the UK’s innovation agency.
The grant will fund a two-year project in partnership with South Korean technology companies Tetra Signum and Health on Cloud, alongside two UK Universities. The project aims to develop an innovative medical education platform for the delivery of medical pharmacology training. The platform will use a combination of AI-supported immersive VR simulations and advanced voice recognition NLP (Natural Language Processing) techniques to deliver realistic clinical scenarios.
Innovate UK, part of UK Research and Innovation, is investing up to £2 million in innovation projects in partnership with the Korea Institute for Advancement of Technology (KIAT). This is to fund collaborative research and development (CR&D) projects focused on industrial research. The funded projects are expected to result in a new product, industrial process or service. They also had to be innovative, involve a technological risk, and have high market potential.
The Sentira submission scored extremely highly and as a result, is one of only a handful of applications to receive funding.
