C-Arm Motion Control Simulator

Webpage created 11/14/25; last updated 4/08/26


This online interactive simulation is for motion control of a mobile C-arm used at our institution that has 5 degrees of freedom (DOF). Three translational are Up/Down, Left/Right (Wig Wag), Forward/Backward (In Out) and two rotational movements are Orbital (Oblique) and Tilt. The online simulation has been excerpted from a SMMARTS-compliant mixed reality simulator for performing fluoroscopy-guided procedures. The fluoroscopic image is not shown for the purpose of focusing on motion control of the C-arm. 

We recommend the Google Chrome web browser to use the simulator at this link.
