Description

VFrog is an innovative Virtual Reality-based dissection simulator developed using virtual surgery technology. VFrog delivers a hands-on active learning experience, allowing students to cut, pull, probe, and examine a virtual specimen, as they would a real frog. It has the added benefit of being virtual, meaning students can do things like watch the heart beat, conduct a virtual endoscopy to explore the entire alimentary canal, make the skin transparent to get better insight into the underlying muscular, skeletal, and organ systems as well as a host of other capabilities that are not available with a physical specimen, nor with any other currently available dissection alternative, including multimedia and web-based products.
