Yeom, Soonja; Choi-Lundberg, Derek; Fluck, Andrew; Sale, Arthur – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2013
Visualizing the structure and relationships in three dimensions (3D) of organs is a challenge for students of anatomy. To provide an alternative way of learning anatomy engaging multiple senses, we are developing a force-feedback (haptic) interface for manipulation of 3D virtual organs, using design research methodology, with iterations of system…
