This paper proposes a novel multimodal interactive surgical simulator that incorporates haptic, olfactory, as well as traditional vision feedback. A scent diffuser was developed to produce odors when errors occur. Haptic device was used to provide the sense of touch to the user. The preliminary results show that adding smell as an aid to the simulation enhanced the memory retention that lead to better performance.

The reflectance of fabric surface is commonly represented by a bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF). To generate the image-based BRDF from measured data, it requires an enormous amount of measurements. In this paper, we propose an efficient image-based method for rendering the anisotropic BRDF of silk-like woven fabrics based on the micro facet surface geometry determined by the cross-sectional shape of fibers, twist of yarns, and type of weave. We develop an image-based method for generating the BRDF of silk-like woven fabrics from measurement of the reflectances caused by the incident light only in the direction perpendicular to the fabric's surface.
