The talk is about Professor Ynnermans’ famous research; using tranform functions to reduce the extremely large amounts of volymetric data from modern medical 3D data scans… then highlighting portions of the data allowing for the production of 3D graphics that are more or less like artistic paintings.

This way Professor Ynnerman and his team can, in just a couple of minutes, perform advanced biopsis on full body scans useful for crime investigations à la CSI…

Check out the amazing work yourself at the TED talk below!

And where does the SenseGraphics technology fit in here? Haptics is actually one of the research topics Ynnerman is working on. As a matter of fact, SenseGraphics has been commercializing the “Volumetric Haptics Toolkit” to H3DAPI, featured in the video (check 11 minutes, beating heart, there is also an older picture of a SenseGraphics Display featured), work done by researcher KJ Lundin Palmerius.

Jump 10 minutes into the video to see the great live demo being performed during the talk or get the whole story told about how to combine vision and touch in the very same virtual (and real, ehhh…?) environment.

Over 60 people, members of the CSTAR industry Roundtable, (http://www.lhsc.on.ca/About_Us/CSTAR/Industry.htm), took part in the meeting to discuss advances in invasive surgical and interventional technologies as well as medical robotics and simulations.

The GAMEX conference is targeting the consumer gaming market and this was the first year the event took place in Kista Fair, not far from SenseGraphics office. The exhibition was a huge success, expectations before the event was to gather 25 000 visitors during the 4 day event but only on Saturday more than 10000 visitors showed up!!!

SenseGraphics brought the Core Skills Trainer (www.CoreSkillsTrainer.com) to the event, a great tool for learning what haptics is and what haptics can do to for the user experience. For the more hard core gamers our ASUS 3D Laptop loaded with Half Life 2 Episode 1, combined with haptics from Novint got even more attention! The use of real 3D stereo was actually quite common at the exhibition but we were the only one showing 3D stereo together with haptics in a real cool game.

The event was put together by the Swedish Embassy in Washington and the Stockholm MedTech Growth (SMG), taking place just 100 meters below SenseGraphics office in the Kista Science of Tower building.

First test assembly of the setup was done today and here is how it all looked like…

Haptics to the public audience!

Delivery of the system will take place in time for the “Grand Opening” in May… more information will follow!

SenseGraphics is presenting the new SenseGraphics Display 300 series and some new medical simulation software from the Medaphor company in UK. Also featured in the SenseGraphics/Schneider booth is Viewsonic 3D enabled projector and the Planar 3 displays with haptics from SensAble.

Schneider with technical speciality in 3D graphics tested out the ATI FirePro V8700 card with H3DAPI 2.1 running using Planar display and Window XP 64 bit OS. Quadbuffered setting stereo(!) the standard demos in H3DAPI 2.1 (medx3d wih a segmented brain!!!) and it worked like a dream…
