A University of Buffalo spin-off, Tactus Technologies specializes in Virtual Reality applications and Simulation products and services. Tactus has developed the next generation of physics based software libraries that allow for real-time interaction, simulation, and visualizationVR flythroughs of future construction are a specialty, and simulations include crime scenes, accidents, construction site layouts. Application of the firm's capabilities range dissection on the virtual frog through a 3D Forklift ⢠Trainer to a Non-traditional, tool-based modeling for rapid design and prototype called ProteanClay⢠to CadaverLab⢠- a project inthe works which wil provide a digital cadaver dissector. V-Frog⢠was the worldâs first virtual reality (V.R.) based frog dissection software designed for biology education. Using a simple mouse and basic personal computer, a student can pick up a scalpel, cut and open the skin of the frog, and explore the anatomy and physiology, just like he or she would with a physi
