Abstract:
Digitized Virtual Human is a new scientific name for most of us, so it is necessary to elucidate its scientific meanings, general situation, research actuality and future prospect. Remarkable benefits have been obtained from Visible Human Project (VHP) in the United States of America, and it has progressed into the research field concerning virtual physical human and physiome. It is a cutting edge scientific field combining life science and information technology in research on visible, virtual and controllable human body. There is an immense amount of indepth theories and technologies to be explored before it is practically mature. Whereas it is very valuable for medical research. Problems in regard to Virtual Chinese Human (VCH) were discussed in 174th Xiang Shan Scientific Conference which was held in 2001, and then the research on VCH formally inargurated in China. The research project has been in rapid progress, and up to now, there are already four datasets reported in our country since then. Image processing and virtual reality technology applied in Visible Human have been in sound development. In the future research, we should pay attention to the quality of dataset and the pertinence of application.
