The net has profoundly changed the teaching of many subjects. Some of them have gained the opportunity to illustrate more easily what was previously difficult to imagine. This is the case for science and the human body.
What an evolution between the color board in the middle of the great dictionary and the current representations of all parts of the human body and its three-dimensional functioning! There are many services that make it possible to explore the human body in an interactive way. I was here a while ago. Corpus, a production of the Canopé network quite interesting. Here are three other options, three online tools that do as well if not better and offer you to see the human body as you have never seen it before. All three offer mobile versions to slide a considerable amount of knowledge about the human body to the bottom of your pocket.

Anatronica
Anatronica offers a free web version with rather limited images and interactivity. But the main thing is there even if a fresh painting would not hurt this service, which deserves much better. The iPad app, on the other hand, is particularly successful. Fluid, modern, complete, you will enjoy navigating inside the human body. The price of the application remains reasonable, around 6 Eur.
