The Shard - mobile lab for surgical education
The Shard is the sophisticated approach to surgical education and scientific demonstration. A mobile wet lab equipped with the latest technology, it is a futuristic take on mediaeval operating rooms. Designed with a minimalistic approach to reduce surgeon distraction, The Shard aspires to be pure and sharp like a fragment of glass.
The materials used are completely radiation-blocking, which is one of the main technical innovations of the lab. This enables the use of x-ray radiation in a realistic and safe way. Cameras and microphones are integrated seamlessly into the design, allowing for live streaming of the surgery to a worldwide audience. For mobile education, the lab can be disassembled and moved to different locations or hospitals.
