From the 25th to the 28th of January IBM showed the demo of our technologies at the Arab Health exhibition in Dubai. It utilized the same showcase as was used at CeBit in Hannover last March.

André and I had the pleasure of presenting it at CeBit and the interest was really overwhelming.

The showcase consists of a mannequin on a plate that can be rotated and the flat screen in front then displays the part of the human anatomy that corresponds to the area immediately behind the screen.

The UI on the display is slightly more simplistic than the real system but the overall setup gives a pretty good picture of how such a system could be used for patient-doctor communication.
