Appli 3D

An integrative tool in augmented reality allowing to visualize in its smallest details an earthworm, a cell, a mussel and an ascaris. Virtual dissection without discomfort! 

The earthworm

The main interest is to make the link between the 3D presentation and the 2D ones usually provided in the courses. From the 3D, real histological sections are annotated. In the case of the earthworm, the metamers are represented on the one hand and the anterior part of the animal on the other hand

The Cell

The 3D view allows you to see the relationships between the different components of the cell. A drop-down menu helps to locate the components whose main characteristics are described. Electron microscopy pictures allow to visualize the structures.

The Mussel

In this section, users can explore the 3D anatomy of the mussel. Annotated transverse histological sections at two key levels— the heart and stomach— provide insights into the tissue organization. Additionally, the videos available on this site offer a glimpse into the transportation of food and water in this filter-feeding creature.

The Ascaris

This part of the application compares the anatomy of a male and a female Ascaris. The female roundworm is also used to reconstruct a very schematic section of the body and to annotate a cross-section. It is also possible to obtain information directly on the main systems.
