Human Body Simulations

Human body simulations are a recap of your body. This is of

much use as you can see in the simulations what could happen

to your body in many different circumstances without having to

suffer as the person being affected is the body in the computer

and not yours.

This simulation is also good because you can find what happens

to bacteria in your body, etc.

Video which shows a simulation of how bacteria works in our

body. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jreKHCfNmkQ

Description

These baby simulator are often used to teach newlyweds on how

to be good parents. The babies cry, poop, move, yell They do

absolutely everything that a real baby does.

Parents have to feed them, change their diapers, play with them,etc.

Even though this simulator is not computer based, it gives a clear

example of what can happen to a baby in certain circumstances

engaging the parents in an interaction with a robotic baby.

Example #2

This is a new powerful software that will help in the

fight againstsuperbugs by tackling them in a more

effective way.

This is done by a computer software which canpredict how the bugs will react while they are treated

with different kinds of medicines and in different

amount applied.

This is a great discovery and of great aid due to the

fact that dctors will now be able to treat patients with

medicines which will fight bugs in their body in themost effective way (which will save many lives.)

Drug Reaction Simulations

Drug reaction simulations work according to your body. This is

the case that you can create an virtual image of what can

happen to your body if a certain drug is added in it.

Drug reaction simulations can also be used to find out whatcan happen to certain bacterias if a drug is inserted to them.

This simulation can be used by research doctors who are in

the search for a cure to some disease.

Description

Human Body Simulations & Drug Reaction Simulations.This transparent reality simulation implemented with Adobe Directoruses a network of 6,934 cells to predict drug distribution in the spinalcavity using a heuristic modeling technique. [vam.anest.ufl.edu]

This is also a great advance in technology as doctors job will befacilitated as they can use this program to ensure that the area wherethey insert the anesthesia and the amount will last the entire operationwithout having to worry that the patient will wake up in the middle of it.

Virtual body parts take the guesswork out of medicine.

(Example 2)

This new inovating simulation enables you to know what will

happen if certain drugs are introduced into your body without

having to run the risk of getting an allergy / incetion from it as

it is not really inserted in your body.

This simulation re-creates exactly all the characteristics fromyour body and basically is a Clone from your real body,

therefore it will give a ery detail and exact response of what

will happen when your system is changed or altered with the

use of drugs.

With this technology lives could be saved as people who

might be allergic to some medications will not receive them asthey will first test the drug into the simulation and afterwards

implement it on your body.

Social Issues

Unemployment- People would be made redundant

Legislation- Would governments allow simulations?Or would they implement certain laws?

Health- Psychology- Is it healthy to have simulations on a

day-to-day basis?

Cultural- Would society accept all types of

simulations?


11/13

Ethical Issues

Accuracy- To what extent can we trust

simulations?

Is it fair that graduated doctors are beingreplaced by machines?

Would you trust your life to an automated

machine?

Which diseases can simulations include and

which ones wouldnt it include?


12/13

Ethical Issues

When should you stop using a simulation?

(eg: When should you quit on having a

simulated baby? Is it healthy?) Who would you blame if the simulation fails?

Who is responsible to operate the

simulations?

Application to Oobunta

As many people did not live further than 50

years old, the human body simulation could

be helpful in order to see how our body wouldreact depending on the different

circumstances one is being exposed to.

In addition, the drug simulation can be also

used to help the few doctors decide upondifferent medicines in order to see its

reaction.
