Everyone is abnormal! They can see how their height, weight
and Body Mass Index compare to others who have used this
exhibit. How similar they are to everyone else can be seen
by where their data is on the curve as a histogram. For
the development of this, ultra sound sensor and force transducer
were used, and the program was developed by the LabVIEW.
Our
ears contain wonderful mechanisms for detecting sound, and
there are many interesting characteristics in our ears.
The dependence of hearing sensitivity on sound intensity
is one of them. This exhibit allows people to feel the sensitivity
of their ears to pitch and intensity. For the development
of this, an external sound card with PC and headphone sets
were used. The program was developed by the Visual Basic.
This
exhibit displays the anatomy of a human body as a participant
walks through an invisible imaging plane, slice by slice.
Although the system does not show actual images of each
participant, it uses a range finder to determine the distance
from the front of the display to the participant from the
Visible Human database for either a male or female body.
The exhibit encourages interaction and fosters an understanding
of the human anatomy. The program was developed by LabVIEW.
