Chinese male digital human NO.1 was evaluated as one of top 10 technological evolvements of China by the Academicians of both Academies, which is the bioinformatics technology significant achievement of national plan 863 project in the field of biology & modem agricultural technology.
Chinese male digital human NO.1 is a “standard Chinese man” screened out from twenty voluntary donators by Southern Medical University. The cadaver specimen is a han nationality health mankind of twenty eight years old. When the cadaver specimen is gained, the job needed for the scientist is cutting the cadaver into thin sections breadth wise with nice cutter. When a piece of specimen is cut, the high resolution digital camera and the scanner are used for imaging. Division, mark, dataset construction and three-dimensional display are accomplished by Huazhong University science & technology and Southern Medical University together. Chinese male digital human NO.1 high resolution camera pixel is 22,000,000 with resolution of 4040×5880, which, at present, is the highest resolution and the biggest dataset of 0.2mm Virtual Human Cutting in the world. Additional, data quantity of the dataset is over 540 kilomega according to 60M per frame release, which is top of the World.
China is the third country who possess of “digital human”database after America and Korea. “Digital human”has extensive application value in the field of Medicine, Spaceflight, Aviation, military affairs.
