14 DAY TRIAL // QA International has announced its awesome iPad app called Virtual Human Body featuring 10 systems of the human body depicted through a lifelike model, over 1,000 anatomical structures named and defined, anatomical dictionary and a neat overlapping feature to visualize the interrelation between bones, muscles and organs.
Although the software seems to have been in the App Store for a while, QA International (QAI) is confirming the app’s availability today.
A key feature seems to be the user-friendly interface which lets you explore and learn about the anatomy of the human body through a professional-grade virtual model.
The app includes lifelike depictions of 10 systems of the human body, including: the morphology (of both man and woman), skeleton, muscles, the nervous system, the lymphatic system, the cardiovascular system, the respiratory system, the digestive system, the urinary system, and the reproductive system (of both man and woman).
The anatomical dictionary includes a textual search engine which is pretty cool. However, there’s an even cooler feature that users will enjoy - the ability to view two overlapping systems to make it easier to understand how stuff works in your body, by seeing the relation between the bones, muscles and organs.
Speaking of which, you can search for organs by their name and then view them in context. You also get to zoom in and out and pivot the model using multi-touch gestures.
“Explore the human anatomy from head to toe and from skin to bones with the Virtual Human Body, a lifelike 3D human model combined with an anatomical dictionary,” said QA International. “Whether you’re a student, a teacher, or simply naturally curious, the Virtual Human Body invites you to a fascinating exploration of the mechanics at play within the human body.”
The app goes for ten bucks (or roughly 8 Euros) and can be obtained via the link below. It’s iPad only and needs iOS 4.3 to run.
