Abstract: A virtual reality acupuncture system contains a virtual reality device comprising: a head-mounted display for viewing a virtual scene model and a mannequin, and a joystick for tracking hand movements for needle insertion determination; an computing host that transmits data with a head-mounted display and constructs an acupoint database, and an acupuncture virtual reality application which is executed to build a virtual reality model, in which the acupuncture virtual reality application constructs a situational scene model for simulating the actual condition of the consultation room; and a virtual 3D spherical acupoint model of the human body, which has a sphere area located at a certain depth below the skin surface, and has a skin distance model, so that the needle can sense the distance depth after touching the skin, which can be used to determine whether the needle position is not outside the sphere area.

Abstract: Quantum dot is a semiconductor nanomaterial. The quantum dot includes a core constituted of InP, a first shell constituted of ZnSe, a second shell constituted of ZnS, and a gradient alloy intermediate layer. The core is wrapped by the first shell. The first shell is wrapped by the second shell, and the first and second shells have different materials. The gradient alloy intermediate layer is between the core and the first shell. The gradient layer includes an alloy constituted of In, P, Zn and Se. A content of the In and P gradually decreases from the core to the first shell. A content of the Zn and Se gradually increases from the core to the first shell. A particle size of the quantum dot is greater than or equal to 11 nm. The quantum dot is capable of emitting light upon excitation with a photoluminescence quantum yield equal to or more than 50%.
