  • Patent number: 10282910
    Abstract: A module for simulating an operative procedure within a virtual environment. The virtual environment is implemented by using a device for processing virtual environment data. The module includes: a module configured to obtain a data structure representing a set of objects of the virtual environment and having at least one relationship of interaction between at least two objects; a module configured to receive at least one scenario representing a procedure to be simulated, the scenario being defined on the basis of a descriptive ontology, the at least one scenario being obtained from at least one pre-determined procedural model; a module configured for the rendering, within the virtual environment, at least one portion of the scenario as a function of the set of objects of the virtual environment, the at least one procedural model and at least one action performed by at least one real user of the virtual environment.
