CyberPatient Authoring Tool - A 3D patient avatar builder for medical professionals
An authoring tool where educators and practitioners can build accurate 3D avatar with sepecific medical cases, and the ability to manipulate or change specific parameters related to a particular condition or disease.
Project Background and Research
Virtual medical simulation tool has became an essential tool to bridge the gap for doctors and medical students to turn theory into practice. Physical medical stimulators are very expensive and a high- fidelity patient stimulators may cost up to 55,000 - 250,000.

According to healthystimulation.com
Online medical tools allow users to build medically accurate avatars and practice with it 24/7. It is easy to use with a required level of medical accuracy for both teaching and practicing.
