Hypercosm for Medical Applications

Hypercosm makes it possible to use the web to deliver validated interactive 3D anatomical and medical content. This interactive content includes manipulable 3D models of human anatomy, interactive simulations of medical procedures, and pharmaceutical applications. For medical applications, Hypercosm’s advantages are three-fold:

  • File compression
    Hypercosm's file compression is designed to work with 3D graphics, creating small files while maintaining high fidelity.

  • Unlimited scripting of interactivity
    Hypercosm's scripting capability allows not just animation, but true simulation with the ability to simulate complex tasks.

  • Secure encryption
    Hypercosm's encryption allows users to view the data, but not to get access to it thereby keeping your anatomical models and medical data safe and private.

Medical Applications

Hypercosm can be used for many levels of medical simulation from the molecular level all the way up to the level of gross anatomy. The following is a list of a few medical applications of Hypercosm:

  • Surgical training

    Hypercosm's ability to program objects with complex dynamic behavior makes it possible to create surgical simulators that allow the user to freely manipulate medical tools and instruments while the simulated medical models change and deform in response.

  • Anatomical atlases
    With Hypercosm, you can create 3D models that integrate right into web based documents. These models can have mouse over behaviors and hyperlinks so they can bring up additional information or link to other documents.

  • Medical device and procedure education
    The ability to very clearly and intuitively depict complex medical instrumentation and procedures makes Hypercosm ideal as a communications and marketing tool for medical devices and other equipment.

  • Telemedicine
    Hypercosm's small file sizes make it possible to transmit medical information electronically to remote practitioners even over low bandwidth connections. Using the Internet, it's possible to engage a distributed network of medical experts in collaborative problem solving.

  • Emergency Medicine / First Responder Training
    Interactive simulation provides a means of creating an enhanced learning experience for first responders to teach emergency medical procedures for the battlefield or for civilian mass casualty response.
