Patent ID: 8095321

Claim:
A modeling device, comprising: an input section configured to receive shape information on an object, and characteristic information, the characteristic information indicating a correspondence between a spot in the object and a characteristic; a processor; and a storage unit storing executable code capable of causing the processor to implement a virtually electrifying section configured to obtain by calculation, on a basis of the shape information that is input to the first input section, an electric potential at a spot in the object at a time when a predetermined voltage is applied to the object, and a projecting section configured to project, onto an object model based on the shape information, the characteristic contained in the characteristic information, the projecting section being configured to specify a spot in the object model on a basis of the electric potential obtained by the virtually electrifying means, onto which spot the characteristic is to be projected, wherein the object is a heart and the characteristic includes a fiber orientation and/or a sheet orientation of a cardiac muscle cell.
