Pros & Cons
PROS
Pros
It allows users to isolate various parts of the human body instead of looking at it as a whole.
It shares all of the eleven human body systems
The images are extremely realistic (ex: if you turn the volume up you can hear the heart beating)
When you rotate the image the anatomy rotates as well, providing a 360 degree view of the human body
It provides realism and interactivity than a 2D experience could obtain
Cons
Cons
It is not compatible with all devices.
Only Android and Samsung
The app currently has only 2 printed body targets so the learning implications are limited to the heart and human body at large.
It is a hassle to constantly print body targets to portray a 3D image
Although the app can be used by kids under the age of 12, it is highly unlikely that kids under the age of 12 will grasp the concept of the human body.
