Components / Organs

Nose

An interactive 3D nose with 22 selectable structures and 3 named views.

Installation

Run:

bunx shadcn@4.22.1 add @organui/nose

This adds nose.tsx to your components directory. Its dependency, organ viewer, adds organ-viewer.tsx, three.js and the shadcn components the viewer's controls use, which need one of shadcn's Base UI styles. Every organ and the cell share that one organ-viewer.tsx.

View registry item JSON

Usage

import { Nose } from "@/components/nose"

export function NoseDemo() {
  return <Nose />
}

Pair it with the anatomy tree as shown below. For a complete explorer with a mobile sheet, install as the Explorer 01 block. Both share structure IDs, so one piece of state drives selection and visibility in each.

Without Controls

Hide the built-in view, zoom, and reset controls while keeping camera interaction and attribution.

Controlled Selection

Connect selection to your application state with selectedId and onSelectionChange.

With Anatomy Panel

Pair this component with AnatomyTree for shared selection and visibility. For a complete layout with a mobile sheet, see the Explorer 01 block.

The GLB loads from a commit-pinned copy in the explorer repository, where its provenance and changes are documented. To serve it yourself, download it from https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/organui/nose-3d@e8acaadd578c9e3b9f7c5cbc6b4e6d8d05dc25f0/public/models/nose.glb and pass the new URL as src.
