[sci.virtual-worlds] midwest vr

 I left a message on one of the topics inquiring about
vr work in the U of M area a few weeks ago and, If I 
have the right name, you mentioned that you could
post it on sci.virtual worlds if requested.
 I'm a x-ray technology student and I'm interested in 
creating a virtual radiography lab for the purpose of 
teaching patient positioning to radiography students.
 An early version could be quite simple while still
being functional. Basically all that's required is 
a human form that models the range of motion and
body contours of a real human being. Improvements 
including tactile and kinesthetic variables could 
be added as the technology becomes available.
 Any assistance would be appreciated.
