Glomerulus AR

3D Model

Introducing an interactive augmented reality (AR) model of the renal glomerulus, designed for immersive educational experiences. This 3D model vividly illustrates the intricate structure of the glomerulus, including the capillary loops, mesangial cells, and filtration membrane.

A unique interactive feature allows users to tap on the glomerular membrane. Upon tapping, the membrane seamlessly disappears, providing a clear view of the internal structures. This action visually demonstrates the protective role of the membrane. Without it, the model shows how proteins and blood cells can easily pass through, highlighting the risk of proteinuria and hematuria.

This AR model not only enhances understanding of glomerular function but also effectively showcases the membrane’s critical role in preventing protein and blood loss, making it an invaluable tool for students and healthcare professionals alike.
