Case study of virtual monitoring utilizing VR and AR tools

Abstract

In this research, we conducted a case study utilizing VR (Virtual Reality) and AR (Augmented Reality) technology with the aim of improving efficiency and digitalization of clinical trial monitoring process. We examined the verification process for remaining investigational drugs in remote communication between site staff and sponsor by using different device combinations. This case study showed that VR/MR technology enabled immersive remote monitoring, while we also found some technical challenges. This report explained the method, results, and future prospects of our exploration.
