HSLS is pleased to introduce its new Microsoft HoloLens headset, which is now available to borrow from the HSLS Technology Help Desk with your valid Pitt ID. The Microsoft HoloLens is a standalone virtual reality system in which players interact with 3D holograms through voice, touch, and hand gestures. When using the HoloLens, players can always see both their physical environment and virtual images, which makes this an ideal system for those new to virtual worlds.
To complement the HoloLens, HSLS is excited to offer full access to AnatomyX, an augmented reality anatomy lab and learning platform supported by the HoloLens. AnatomyX features over 5,000 detailed anatomical models of the human body and provides users with current information about anatomy functions, etymology, and more. Interested faculty members are encouraged to inquire about AnatomyX’s customizable learning experiences, available through features such as buildable quizzes.
