How does augmented reality work?

Students using augmented reality to study muscle actions Students using augmented reality to study muscle actions

An augmented reality experience is created when you use the camera of a device (like an iPhone, Android phone, or iPad), to view a real world environment alongside digital images and information.

With the AR feature in Visible Body Suite, you can:

  • Place a virtual organ or complete human body model on any flat surface
  • Explore 3D models from any angle and dissect inside
  • Conduct a full virtual cadaver dissection anywhere
