Google Launches 'Body Browser'

  Google has announced an interesting WebGL application called Body Browser, which can map out the entire human body. The application, yet to be released officially, could revolutionise people's understanding of the human body and even fast-track medical research. 




"Google Body Browser ushers in the introduction of brand new Internet technology called WebGL, that will allow complex 3D graphics to be used on normal Web pages, without the need for specially adapted browser plug-ins like Flash or Java," the Daily Mail reported.

Now you can try Google Body Browser before it's added to Google Labs, assuming that you have a WebGL-enabled browser:

* WebGL is available, but not enabled by default in Chrome 8 (the latest stable version). Type about:flags in the address bar, click "Enable" next to "WebGL" and then click on "Restart now". Note that this is an experimental feature in Chrome 8.


* WebGL is enabled by default in Chrome 9 Beta, Chrome 9 Dev Channel, Chrome Canary Build and Firefox 4 beta.
