Body Planet Magic T-Shirt offers
interactive 3D representations of the torso
- with heart,
- digestive system and
- surrounding internal organs, bones and muscles.
Technical terms are available in different languages (German, English, Spanish, French etc.)
- excellently suited for (parallel) bilingual teaching.
A photo function among other things for
- consolidation of what has been learned,
- creation of worksheets and
- use in homeschooling and afternoon classes.
The free app automatically generates the body interior view via the marker (the pattern) on the T-shirt. In the process, different layers (and even individual structures or organs) can be faded in and out on the tablet or smartphone, providing deeper and deeper insights into the body that are absolutely anatomically correct.
It is very easy to switch between the subject areas:
- Interior view of the chest cavity - good for overview, location of organs and structures.
- Focus on digestion - here the path of the food can be followed animatedly, the interaction of the organs and their tasks become clear
- Focus on the heart - here the full functionality of the heart is shown in longitudinal section, the pumping, the blood flow, the atria and ventricles in their joint mode of action.
The anatomy specialists of the University of Barcelona have certified the 3D images and 3D animations.
As usual, this app has also been tested by colleagues in different schools. Whether as an introduction, during learning at stations, or to consolidate and present what has been learned - its use has already proven successful in different teaching situations and grade levels for the following topics:
- the path of food through the body
- heartbeat and pumping action
- structure of the heart
- me and my body
- health and wellbeing
- healthy nutrition
- exploring the body on your own
