Cryosection through the head of a human male. The Visible Human Project is an effort to create a detailed data set of cross-sectional photographs of the human body, in order to facilitate anatomy visualization applications. It is used as a tool for the progression of medical findings, in which these findings link anatomy to its audiences. [1]
Their flagship product, the BioDigital Human, is a "searchable, customizable map of the human body". [4] The BioDigital Human Platform has over a million users, [5] including doctors, medical students, and yoga instructors.

BodyParts3D polygon data are extracted from full-body MRI images. The MRI image set that BodyParts3D is based on is called "TARO". Taro is a common given name for males in Japanese, as John is in English. TARO is a 2mm * 2mm * 2mm voxel dataset of the human male created by the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology. [4]
