The Society of NanoBioSensing

The Society of NanoBioSensing' is a multi-story gesture-responsive projection that enables the viewer to explore scanning electron microscope images of ZIF-8, an engineered nanomaterial on prostate tumor cells. These particles absorb into the cell surface and deliver genetic therapies into the cytoplasm of the cells. The innovative aspect of this work is that, given the sheer scale of the original image, the viewer can use movement and gesture to navigate the image and zoom in from a collection of cells to see the cell surface and the nanoparticles on the surface — all in superb resolution and in an embodied manner.
