I've seen a lot of lighting reps pushing their fluorescent lighting fixtures with designs and patterns behind them with varying degrees of success but I really like the pediatric applications. I've seen hospitals create rooms that look like undersea adventures and such. Lighting fixtures in hospital environments have much stricter standards and it's good to see companies tackling those challenges and still putting humanity behind it.
The University of California at Santa Barbara has a sort of 3D-projection version of this, called the AlloSphere. Its director, JoAnn Kuchera-Morin, gave a TED talk about it earlier this year. She's a cool lady (I used to work down the hall from her), and she's put together a truly fantastic marvel of technology.
It was a blast to quite literally explore a human brain, as well as a zinc oxide crystal. Check it out:
Ages ago I used to play a fairly realistic surgery game on the PC, loved it even though I had lost the manual and learned by trial and error (can't do that in medical school). Would love to get a current gen game like that to play around with. #thiscyborglife
"Oh darling, hold me, and let me caress your hair with my hat-hands as you whisper sweet nothings into my trumpet ears. I could spend countless hours with you, in this fashion, as long as my foodpouch remains engorged. I've a special gift for you, in my pouch. Yes, a ring! I'm smiling from trumpet-ear to trumpet-ear, all twenty teeth gleaming! There are butterflie sin my stomach... look, I'll open my hatch and show you! Ha, I know, I jest so, darling! Marry me! Every evening you can remove my arms and we'll fall asleep together, as my snout takes in the sweet scent of your perfume. We shall be so happy together in this glorious futuristic life!"#thiscyborglife
