dc.description.abstractSocioeconomic and health system progress has resulted in significant improvements in living conditions and an increase in average life expectancy. However, the aging of the European population highlights the growing demand for healthcare. Technology plays a crucial role in transforming this sector, driving advances in the treatment and diagnosis of diseases. Medical simulation emerges as an essential tool for improving skills, facing challenges in the transition to more effective and realistic approaches. The shortage of trainers and supervision during internships are challenges in medical education in Portugal, as well as preventable deaths related to medical errors. In response to these problems, the MedTech Simulator, an advanced training tool designed to improve the technical skills of medical students in a safe and realistic way. With a clinically accurate environment, the simulator integrates crucial functionalities such as facial recognition, speech processing, motor-controlled head and eye movements, and pressure, temperature and breathing mechanisms. The interface offers disease simulation options, allowing control of each module and visualization of vital data. The harmonious integration of Python, Arduino Mega and Raspberry is essential to the success of the medical simulator. The purpose of the prototype is to guarantee the appropriate knowledge, skills and behavior of doctors in clinical training, to provide excellent service and ensure patient safety.eng
