3-D cs5984: Information Visualization Chris North
Last Week • Virtual Environments • 3-D manipulation, navigation, immersion • Scientific Visualization • Data Flow? • Peripheral Displays • Primary and secondary tasks, attention
Today • DeFanti, “Scientific Visualization”, pg 39 • Sayle, “Rasmol”, web • Yuying, Matt
3-D Data • Vector/Polygonal surface data • Polygons approximate surfaces of 3D objects • Paint textures on surfaces • E.g: Rasmol, Quake • Navigation: • Move camera • Move objects • 6 dof: • 3 rotation • 3 translation
3-D Data 2-D: • Voxel volume data • Fully sampled contents of 3D objects • Voxel = 3D pixel; point in a 3D image • E.g: Visible Human, MRI, CaT scan • Visible Human • slice and photograph • MRI & CaT: • Measures tissue density at each point in space • Navigation? 3-D:
Slicing • Visible Human Explorer (north et al) • Video? • Demo?
Image Segmentation • Determine physical structures within volume • Manual • Image processing • Generate surfaces
Image Segmentation • Voxel-Man • Hamburg University • http://www.uke.uni-hamburg.de/institute/imdm/idv/vm3dn/io_thorax.en.html
Transparency • Reduce occlusion problem • http://www.uke.uni-hamburg.de/institute/imdm/idv/vm3dn/io_xray_combined.en.html
3-D data: Digital Video • 3D: Stack 2D video frames time y x
Slicing Digital Video Full overview: time zoom • Red’s Nightmare video in VHE motion Scene change Pan left still credits
Assignment • Read for Thurs: Workspaces • Gelernter, “LifeStreams”, web • fanye, luhui • Robertson, “Task Gallery”, web • priya, dilshad • Read for Tues: Construction • Hibino, “InfoStill”, web • gowri, joy • Haeberli, “Data Flow”, web • ajay, denzil
Future • O+D vs. F+C • 2D vs. 3D • Project presentations start in 2 weeks! • Last 2 days of class, 2 hours/class • 10 min talk (5 slides), demo, paper draft • Final paper: may 7 • CAVE tour now (torg 3050)
