        \_ I just want to express my appreciation that this time you actually
           attatched a warning label to your cow's ass link.
        \_ Does the guy on the right in the picture have his pants down?

haptic cow simulator done by the Glasgow Intera ctive Systems Group and the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine (University o f Glasgow, UK): Bovine rectal palpation is a necessary skill for a veterinary student to learn. However, lack of resources and welfare issues currently restric t the amount of training available to students in this procedure. Here we present a virtual reality based teaching tool - the Bovine Rectal Pa lpation Simulator - that has been developed as a supplement to existing training methods. When using the simulator, the student palpates virtu al objects representing the bovine reproductive tract, receiving feedba ck from a PHANToM haptic device (inside a fibreglass model of a cow), w hile the teacher follows the students actions on the monitor and gives instruction. We present a validation experiment that compares the perf ormance of a group of traditionally trained students with a group whose training was supplemented with a simulator training session. The subse quent performance in the real task, when examining cows for the first t ime, was assessed with the results showing a significantly better perfo rmance for the simulator group.
