The Ghost Anatomy Project
In anatomy courses, effective visualization of the human body contributes to success in learning the curriculum. Despite their educational value, effective, hands-on visualization of the human body are subject to physical and economic constraints. The Ghost Anatomy Project is a 3D volumetric display which allows users to interact with a holographic-like, anatomically correct model of the human body. It utilizes the Pepper’s Ghost illusion to create a 3D visualization, WebGL for rendering, and a Leap Motion for gesture-based interaction. The interface allows anatomy students to study the human body in an effective, hands-on manner with less economical and physical constraints than cadavers, and more accuracy and flexibility than plastic models. Welcome to the future of anatomy education.
