glass heart


北米、ミネアポリスのHybrid Medical Animation社はインテラクティブに透明度を操作できる心臓の3Dアニメーションを開発.ECG(心電図)が画面下に表示されたり、拡大機能、心拍数をコントロール出来たりしたら、より機能的だったかもしれない.

Minneapolis based Hybrid Medical Animation focusing on medical and scientific imaging, has developped an "interactive heart" which allows for an intuitive visualization of the anatomical movement of the organ, using the ability to modify opacity.
An ECG at the bottom of the screen and a zooming function and changing the heart beat would be a major asset as well.
