http://www.ted.com Torsten Reil talks about how the study of biology can help make natural-looking animated people — by building a human from the inside out, with bones, muscles and a nervous system. He spoke at TED in 2003; see his work now in GTA4.

Using the infrared camera in the Wii remote and a head mounted sensor bar (two IR LEDs), you can accurately track the location of your head and render view dependent images on the screen. This effectively transforms your display into a portal to a virtual environment. The display properly reacts to head and body movement as if it were a real window creating a realistic illusion of depth and space. By Johnny Chung Lee, Carnegie Mellon University.

This 3D medical animation of shoulder dystocia in a newborn shows a vaginal delivery with the uterus removed for greater visibility of the brachial plexus in the neck and shoulder area of the fetus. As the baby is pushed through the mother’s pelvic outlet during labor, we see the infant’s shoulder being trapped beneath the mother’s pelvic bone (pubic symphysis) causing the nerves of the brachial plexus to be stretched and injured. This form of brachial plexus injury is called neuropraxia, and may result in symptoms including a limp or paralyzed arm; lack of muscle control in the arm, hand, or wrist; and lack of feeling or sensation in the arm or hand.

This time-lapse 3D medical animation shows the stations of presentation
during labor (labour) and childbirth. The animation follows the baby’s
progress through the mother’s birth canal, marking the baby’s position
by how her head lines up with specific points in the mother’s bony
pelvis. These points are called vertex positions, and use the
designations +3, +2, +1, 0, -1, -2 -3 in what obstetricians (OB/GYNs)
call the 1/3 system.

Sci-Fi Fantasy journey of a little girl with a special pet friend, a huge toad. Once the girl loses her pet ,which drifts in the sky in a form of a balloon, she is going thought different adventurous scenarios by chasing it. This is a full 3D animation music video for the song ‘Hey’ by Eatliz band, taken from Eatliz’s debut album “Violently Delicate”. Hey is direced by Guy Ben Shetrit, the main composer of Eatliz.

Fifteen people were involved in the process of making the video, all of them top professionals in animation, art and 3D design in Israel. The production pipeline was set up following the principles and workflow of major animation studios. No step was skipped in the process, from script writing to design, modeling and character development, followed by a painstaking animation process. All of the above was completed under the direction of Guy Ben Shetrit by Art directors (Eithan Weinshtock, Sherban), Model artists (Paul “Jones” Wolf, Sherban, Rafi Ben Aharon, Daniel Shneor and Ben Shetrit), Animators (Talia Tsur, Tom Dor, Ron Golan and Ben Shetrit) and Technical direction and Rigging (Matan Halberstadt, David Gidali, Yuval Nathan and Ben Shetrit). The final stages of shading, texturing, lighting, look & feel, rendering, VFX and compositing were done by Aiko Studio.

This 3D medical animation shows the common indications for a cesarean delivery, including dystocia, placenta previa, fetal distress and multiple births. A cesarean section (c-section) surgery to deliver a baby in frank breech (feet first) position is also shown. During the procedure, the surgeon (usually an obstetrician/gynecologist, i.e. ob/gyn) makes an incision in the abdominal wall and uterus in order to deliver the baby. The animation also includes information on what to expect before and after the surgery. See more 3D medical animations from Nucleus Medical Art at http://www.nucleusinc.com/youtube

Nucleus Medical Art’s 3D medical animation shows the anatomy of a
typical cervical (neck) spine and intervertebral disc. Details include
orientation of the cervical spine, movements of the spinal vertebrae,
and movement of intervertebral discs. A cross-section of the
intervertebral disk and spinal cord highlight the nucleus pulposus,
annulus fibrosus, spinal cord, dura mater, spinal root, and spinal
nerve.

This 3d medical animation shows a heart attack resulting from atherosclerosis, which is inflammation of an artery. It was designed to be an immersive experience to hold the viewer’s interest in this complex, slow-developing process. Every shot was conceptualized as a visual effect to evoke the sensation of a journey within a dynamic and diverse environment. Beginning with the probable cause, which is damage to the endothelial wall, the story progresses in detail through the stages of atherosclerosis concluding with the resulting damage to the heart.

This 3D heart animation shows a coronary angioplasty procedure to correct a blocked artery in the heart. It begins by showing the buildup of plaque in an artery wall of the heart, blocking the flow of blood. Afterwards, the patient lies on a testing table while contrast dye is injected into the arteries of the heart, showing the location of the blockage. A guide wire is then moved through the lumen of the blood vessel, followed by a balloon and stent mechanism. The balloon inflates, putting the metal stent in place, so that the lumen of the artery is open and the red blood cells can flow freely.

It is a very excellent animation which explains the hiv replication very clearly.

Targeting HIV replication

The replication of HIV 1 is a multi-stage process.

Each step is crucial to successful replication and is therefore a potential target of antiretroviral drugs.

Step one is the infection of a suitable host-cell, such as a CD4-positive T-lymphocyte.

Entry of HIV into the cell requires the presence of certain receptors on the cell surface, CD4 — receptors and co-receptors such as CCR5 or CXCR4.

These receptors interact with protein-complexes, which are embedded in the viral envelope.

These complexes are composed of two glycoproteins:

an extracellular gp 120 and
a transmembrane gp 41

When HIV approaches the target cell gp120 binds to the CD4-receptors. This process is termed attachment.

It promotes further binding to a co-receptor. Co-receptor binding results in a conformational change in gp120.

This allows gp41 to unfold and insert its hydrophobic terminus into the cell membrane.

Gp 41 then folds back on itself.

This draws the virus towards the cell and facilitates the fusion of their membranes.

The viral nucleocapsid enters the host cell and breaks open releasing two viral RNA-strands and 3 essential replication enzymes:

Integrase, Protease and Reverse Transcriptase.

Reverse Transcriptase begins the reverse transcription of viral RNA.

It has two catalytic domains:

The Ribonuclease-H active site

And the polymerase active site

Here single stranded viral RNA is transcribed into an RNA-DNA double helix. Ribonuclease- H breaks down the RNA.

The polymerase then completes the remaining DNA-strand to form a DNA — double helix.

Now Integrase goes into action.

It cleaves a dinucleotide from each 3-prime end of the DNA creating two sticky ends.

Integrase then transfers the DNA into the cell nucleus and facilitates its integration into the host cell genome.

The host cell genome now contains the genetic information of HIV.

Activation of the cell induces transcription of proviral DNA into messenger RNA.

The viral messenger RNA migrates into the cytoplasm where building blocks for a new virus are synthesised.

Some of them have to be processed by the viral protease.

Protease cleaves longer proteins into smaller core proteins.

This step is crucial to create an infectious virus.

Two viral RNA-strands and the replication enzymes then come together and core proteins assemble around them forming the capsid.

This immature particle leaves the cell acquiring a new envelope of host and viral proteins.

The virus matures and becomes ready to infect other cells.

HIV replicates billions of times per day destroying the hosts` immune cells and eventually causing disease progression.

Drugs which interfere with the key steps of viral replication can stop this fatal process.

Entry into the host cell can be blocked by fusion inhibitors for example.

Inhibition of reverse transcriptase by nucleoside inhibitors or by non-nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase- inhibitors is part of standard antiretroviral regimens.

The action of Integrase can be blocked.

Protease inhibitors are also part of standard antiretroviral therapy.

Each blocked step in viral replication is a step towards better control of HIV disease.

This 3D medical animation shows how antibodies stop harmful pathogens
from attaching themselves to healthy cells in the blood stream. The
animation begins by showing normal red and white blood cells flowing
through the blood stream. Next, a single pathogen appears onscreen
slowly moving toward its destination on the surface of a cell. The
tubular extensions on the pathogen are surface proteins which attach to
corresponding surface proteins on a white blood cell, or leukocyte. As
the animation continues, more pathogens continue to attach to the white
blood cell, rendering it ineffective.

During the immune system response, Y-shaped antibodies begin attacking
the pathogen, binding to its surface proteins as the pathogen attempts
to anchor to the blood cell. The antibodies completely block the
pathogen from attaching to the blood cell, “tagging” the pathogen so
that one of the immune system’s leaner cells, a macrophage, appears
onscreen to engulf and digest the pathogen.
