Cyber Science 3D

Cyber Science 3D at a glance:

• Educational software for learning and exploring interactive 3D science content
• Each simulation allows the user to explore and dissect interactive models on their computer
• Grade-relevant content available to teachers and students for K-12
• Virtual dissection of human anatomy, zoology, botany, microbiology, earth science, and more!
• Labeling feature allows for learning and identifying features and quizzing
• Intuitive controls and easy to use interface for students and teachers
• All content available in web-based 2D or stereographic 3D modes!

Why Cyber Science 3D?

• Interactivity is vital to the learning experience!
• Biology can be difficult to visualize.
• Text books and 2D pictures are not always enough.
• It is impossible to repeat dissection exercises or to correct mistakes.
• Plastic models are costly.

Human Anatomy

Our Cyber Science 3D™ Introductory Human Anatomy series provides a variety of simulations of anatomical systems. Each simulation is available for display via a desktop or laptop computer through an internet connection or via a one-time software download. The simulations can also be configured for display on interactive whiteboards, or through a connection to a traditional (2D) or stereographic (3D ready) projector.

Instructors can use the content in a lecture environment to demonstrate human anatomy, including terms, labels, and spatial relationships. Imagine traversing a nerve path or the digestive system, peeling away layers of muscle and layers of organs, or hiding external features to reveal underlying constructs!

Students are able to interact directly with these systems to develop a working knowledge of human anatomy in support of either self-directed study or organized project activities.

Zoology

Cyber Science 3D™ Zoology is our most popular series. This series provides fully dissectible frogs, cats, and fetal pigs, in addition to a wide variety of other sea creatures, animals, and insects. Our current customers have had success using the software to replace physical animal dissections in the classroom. Other schools have reported significant benefit to biology instruction by using the Cyber Science 3D™ software to reinforce dissection laboratory experiments. Instructors can enable or disable the labeling feature to support quizzing. 

Botany

The Cyber Science 3D™ Botany series focuses on demonstrating botanical systems at various stages of development. Our Corn model includes three stages of development: a kernel, a seedling, and a stalk. Each plant is fully dissectible, and provides a full array of user controls: rotate, zoom, pan, peel/stick, hide/unhide, transparency, and explode. 

Microbiology

The Cyber Science 3D™ Microbiology series best demonstrates the novelty of our software, as microscopic organisms come to life in a way previously unavailable in K-12 classrooms. This series includes plant and animal cells, viruses, DNA, and microorganisms such as flagellates and bacteria.

The Microbiology series can be used to instruct students in the basic structure, function, and behavior of microorganisms. The software is very well suited to augmenting laboratory microscopy sessions and reinforcing textbook lessons.

Earth Science

An interactive volcano is the initial offering in our Cyber Science 3D™ Earth Science line. Students and teachers are able to fully dissect the construct to analyze common elements in this geological formation.

The Cyber Science team is currently at work on several different types of volcanoes (Strato, Rift, Underwater, Super, and Shield).They also have plans to extend their work to other geological formations – and astronomy – in the near future.

Paleontology

Our Cyber Science 3D™ Paleontology line started with our dissectible Tyrannosaurus Rex, which we unveiled at the 2010 ISTE Conference in Denver. Our second dinosaur, the Triceratops, is now available, and will shortly be followed by five additional new dinosaur models.

Rather than trying to guess at the underlying musculature and organs of dinosaurs, our Paleontology series focuses on the size, shape, and underlying skeletons of dinosaurs. A human model is provided to give the student a sense of scale of these impressive creatures.

Future work will focus on providing the student with the ability to assess various coloring patterns and skin textures that have been the focus of paleontologist speculation.

Chemistry

We are very excited about our Cyber Science 3D™ Chemistry series!

Our interactive Periodic Table has received quite a bit of attention from chemistry teachers across the country. The Periodic Table is an excellent teaching aid, and will be the control panel for our new, interactive Cyber-Chemistry exercises.

Engineering

Our Cyber Science 3D™ Engineering series was also introduced at the 2010 ISTE Conference with our dissectible V-8 engine. Like all of our simulations, the V-8 provides an excellent interactive experience on conventional (2D) displays, and provides an unrivaled learning experience in stereographic 3D (a special graphics card and active 3D glasses are required).

Math

We have received a great deal of positive feedback from customers regarding our Cyber Science series of products. The most common question we get is “so, where is the math?”

We are nearing completion on our first math simulation, which provides an interactive experience allowing students and teachers to build and analyze one-, two- and three-dimensional shapes and measurements. This tool is very well suited for classroom instruction, or for independent exploration by students.

We are also working on several new concepts that will extend our math series to the full K-12 range.
