SimCath

How do surgeons prepare for an operation, when they know that the smallest mistake could be the line between life and death? That was the question Cellule faced when developing SimCath, a cardiology suite for simulation training. By training in a simulation environment, future surgeons have an opportunity to rehearse for complex surgery, performing common interactions between patients and clinicians in a low risk environment. Developing SimCath was reminiscent of building a theatre set, a stage which mimics the real surgical environment in such a way that the surgeons acting through their roles are immersed in the performance of surgery and the relationship between patients and clinicians.

*Liquidus* is an interactive, physics-based fluid simulation that turns Deep Space into a playful laboratory to experiment with various properties of liquids and gases. Data for the physics calculations are processed and visualized in real-time and are also utilized to create a soundscape that supports the overall visual experience.
