01 / Overview

The exhibit allows visitors to understand the role of the heart and the concept of blood circulation through mechanical interaction.

02 / How visitors use it

The unit is designed for unsupervised public use: controls are recessed or shielded, moving parts are enclosed, and the interface is operable by a child of about six with no instruction. Where a screen is used, the language can be switched without changing the hardware, and the content can be replaced on site.

03 / The science behind it

The main function of the heart is to provide power for blood flow, transporting blood to various parts of the body. The human heart is located in the lower left middle of the chest cavity, with a volume equivalent to the size of a fist and a weight of approximately 250 grams.

04 / Built for a public floor

Every unit leaves the factory after a running test: mechanisms cycled, electronics burned in, edges dressed, fixings torqued and marked. Wear parts — bearings, sliders, lamps, belts, touch panels — are modular and listed on the spare-part sheet, so a venue technician can replace them without returning the exhibit. Crating is plywood with foam blocking; the loading plan and packing list travel with the shipment.
