We’re always suckers for some augmented reality thrills, so we were excited by this rare opportunity to take a look at our own insides with the help of this superimposed virtual human skeleton and the Kinect’s tracking technology. The Magic Mirror hack, from Tobias Blum and Nassir Navab of medical research institute CAMP, traces the targets body, then overlays it with high resolution CT (computed tomography) images of a human skeleton, producing the slightly disturbing result of being able to stare into someone’s supporting structure. Of course, the skeleton you see doesn’t actually belong to the person being scanned, but instead is taken from a Korean dataset. Apart from looking pretty cool, the idea is for it to eventually be used to help teach human anatomy, so you could be looking at the future of biology lessons, which could be good news for frogs.
