This is interesting, Jason. I found this to be true for pilots as well. Serious gamers seemed to perform really well in the portions of flight school that required complex hand-eye-brain coordination.
It would be great to have AR of this type in classrooms for students to use, but I also think of how helpful it would be for teachers! I imagine it could really help manage student academic information, as well as encourage collaboration and a more open classroom.
The first (or at least most comprehensive!) 3D visualization of this kind of surgical procedure; arguably these kinds of animations are superior to 2D animations for showing anatomy.
Next step for education: interactive surgical media?
These kind of videos would be helpful for medical students to watch in their surgery clerkship before observing a particular surgery, especially since anatomy curriculum has been shortened and cut throughout national medical school programs.
