Pulse Physiology Engine

Kitware provides this asset to enable a quick integration of the Pulse Physiology Engine in Unity. The Pulse Physiology Engine is an open source library for accurate, consistent, dynamic simulation of the whole-body response to injury, disease, and treatment.

Pulse has been paired with a wide variety of medical training platforms to improve virtual patient responses and interactions. In addition to the Pulse library integration, we include examples of generating physiologic patient data, rendering the patient data, and a complete vital sign monitor, all of them created with reusable Unity components.
