With the opening of its new medical education building on August 2, 2010, the University of Central Florida\u2019s College of Medicine\u2019s vision is to be the nation\u2019s premier 21st century college of medicine\u2014a national leader in education, research and patient care, recognized for supporting and empowering its students and faculty to realize their passion for discovery, healing, health and life, and for its ability to create partnerships to transform medical education and health care.<\/p>\n

To that end, UCF called on Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America and CyberTouch to create monitors that provide sharp, brilliant images in difficult environments.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Mitsubishi monitors with CyberTouch\u2019s touch-screens make a positive and dramatic impact on learning,\u201d said Ron Knappenberger, assistant director, educational technology, UCF College of Medicine. \u201cWe\u2019re the first medical school built from the ground up in the last 30 years, and our environmental focus and our technology proves it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Knappenberger met with Mitsubishi and CyberTouch to develop a unique integrated LCD monitor with a low environmental impact that could withstand environments such as those created during cadaver dissections.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnyone who watches a detective show on TV is familiar with this type of lab,\u201d said James Chan, senior marketing director, Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America. \u201cSo we created a product that would withstand fluid and other sorts of materials that can be hostile to technology but are so important to students in medicine and scientific research.\u201d<\/p>\n

CyberTouch\u2019s integrated overlay on the Mitsubishi LDT332V LCD monitor looks like a regular digital signage monitor, but the overlay neatly fits inside the bezel, directly on top of the screen. Touch is super-sensitive in spite of the industrial-grade coating that can withstand students\u2019 soiled gloved hands.<\/p>\n

The professor\u2019s station is in the middle of a curved (XX) square-foot laboratory, which has four IP-addressable cameras and a monitor poised over a gurney. During class, the teacher can display exactly what he or she is doing; students can watch demonstrations, track dissection progress, research information on the Internet, take notes, and make annotations on the monitors suspended above their own stations, all in real time.<\/p>\n
