"Zygote's anatomy products are a core element in most of the projects we are involved with, none more so than DK's The Complete Human Body where they take center stage in the book's amazing Anatomy Atlas.

Medi-Mation has been working with Zygote's anatomical models since they were first launched--it's been a pleasure to see the assets develop in detail and accuracy over time. Compared to other commercially available products, Zygote's models are far cleaner and more detailed, making them wonderful assets from which to build illustrations and animation. We look forward to seeing where future iterations will take them.

For The Complete Human Body, Medi-Mation required a highly detailed and clean set of models. These formed the basis of the illustrations for the book, which explores every aspect of the body in incredible detail. Some views are 80 percent life-size. The clear, sensible labeling of assets and clean geometry allowed us to divide the model and add even more detail without any problems, even with all anatomy layers loaded in at the same time.

Zygote's model sets saved us a huge amount of time and effort, making complex and high profile projects such as The Complete Human Body feasible in terms of both production and budget."

The Solid 3D Male Muscular System includes all of the major muscles of skeletal movement, individually named with standard nomenclature and organized as a separate part with no interpenetration between muscles. The superficial surfaces of each muscle were created by hand using scan data of a 50th percentile (by height and weight) U.S. male as templates for construction. Origin and insertion points were carefully crafted using scan data, using the skeletal landmarks characteristic of such muscle attachments and using atlases and other published source material.

Muscles are connected to the skeleton in two ways between which customers may select. In the first connection option, the muscles extrude into the bones at the origins and insertions. Though interpenetrating geometry is often not allowed in simulations, this method results in a lighter data set that is less taxing on computer systems. The second method for muscle connections uses trims in every instance where a muscle originates or inserts with a bone. This treatment is heavier, more detailed data and as such it is more taxing for systems to process, but it maintains a more true origin and insertion system and connection of muscle to bone.
