Important compatibility notice
Chromebooks and devices running Chrome OS are not supported.
Virtual Medical Coaching software requires a supported Windows or macOS computer with a compatible GPU. Chrome OS does not provide the graphics driver access required for real-time 3D medical simulation.
Our software requires direct access to a dedicated graphics processing unit (GPU) to render complex 3D medical environments in real time. This includes anatomy rendering, X-ray beam behaviour, image formation, scatter simulation, positioning changes, and immediate visual feedback based on user interaction.
Chrome OS is designed for lightweight, browser-based tasks and does not provide the low-level access to graphics drivers and hardware acceleration required for real-time 3D simulation. Even Chromebooks that advertise higher specifications or Linux support cannot reliably provide the GPU functionality needed for our software to run.
For this reason, Virtual Medical Coaching simulations will not install, launch, or perform correctly on Chromebooks.
