This is the first augmented reality App to be rolled out in a series of Apps created and designed for medical education purposes.

Our goal is to make medical education fascinating, explorable, and fun for students, physicians as well as accessible to patients - anywhere and anytime, in or out of the classroom, lecture hall, or living room. We have committed ourselves to take medical education one step further and have developed visually stunning and highly interactive content based on real-life medical and scientific specifications.

Have you ever wondered what your heart looks like during a workout? No problem! You can either use our live heart rate function with Apple Watch (*NEW Companion App) or the integrated Health app support to let your last workout data drive the heartbeat in realtime!

Using ARKit, INSIGHT HEART lets users easily scan their physical surroundings and place the three-dimensional heart without the need for predefined markers. Our virtual assistant ANI will guide you through various states of the heart.

Explore the human heart like never before. In the latest app version, we've integrated our brand-new heart model based on real CT data, showcasing breathtaking resolution and medically accurate anatomy. Rotate and scale the high-resolution heart floating in front of you and feast your eyes on highly detailed 4K textures.
