New TVS upgrade adds print and haptic control functions

In response to feedback from our current users, a new software release for the ScanTrainer ultrasound simulator adds two important new features.

A new one-click 'print' function enables trainees to print out a summary of their passed lessons for sign-off by their tutor. The system automatically recognises the trainee's tutor and prints their name on the certificate.

A new user-changeable 'haptic force' function allows the user to change the force feedback settings for the ultrasound probe. The new settings (standard - reduced - minimum) are changeable in the home screen and at the lowest settings minimise the risk of the haptic motors overheating in long simulation sessions.
