Sunday, March 7th, 2010

I have recently received lots of proofs on applications beeing developed using SenseGraphics H3DAPI. Some of these consits of videos which are going to be posted on SenseGraphics H3DAPI Youtube user channel (www.youtube.com/h3dapi). First out is Dr Felix Hamza-Lop from the Armstrong Atlantic State University with a great video that shows how haptics is used for learning physics…

Visit by KTH master students

Monday, March 1st, 2010

This morning, we are happy to host a visit by KTH assoc. prof Svein Kleiven and his master students. They are taking a master course namely “Introduction to Medical Simulation”. SenseGraphics again has the honour to showcase our latest virtual-reality technology.

We at SenseGraphics understand how important a practicum internship is to a student’s master thesis (trust us, we’ve all been there). We always welcome talented and passionate master students looking for practical work on your thesis to intern with us. Just contact us with your resumé ;)

See the photos of the event below. Click on the pictures for enlarged version.

Mastering an Iron ore Shiploader

Monday, December 28th, 2009

Mastering an iron ore shiploader could sometimes be very uncomfortable, extremely hot and dusty. Especially when you are doing it sitting in a small cabin exposed to the direct sunlight in a very warm country.

Sensegraphics H3DAPI software is currently being used in an application for “mastering” an iron ore shiploader remotely. Replacing the actual operators cabin view with a 360 degree camera (the same Google is using for taking road pictures for Google maps) the operator could now be sitting in a more comfortable room, air conditioned, safely(?) mastering the shiploader looking at a 3 meter wide doome (sphere screen).

Below is a picture on a shiploader.

SenseGraphics showing the latest in Magdeburg

Thursday, October 29th, 2009

SenseGraphics partnered with the German company Schneider digital for the haptic conference in Magdeburg.

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…

SenseGraphics at Miccai captured on Youtube

Friday, October 23rd, 2009

Our friends from Quanser captured SenseGraphics at the Miccai conference in a video and put it up on youtube recently.

Another interesting video from Miccai features the Inition (another SenseGraphics friend) company booth. Inition is specialised in all sorts of 3D visualisation gears. In the video below (after 1 minute) you will find a haptics Botox concept simulator that actually was put togteher using SenseGraphics H3DAPI and development services from our company.

MICCAI’09

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

It has been a very well-organized conference cum exhibition that we’re having here at MICCAI’09 in London. Warm weather, good food, nice services and lots of prospective customers.

“It’s a very well organized conference. We’ve met a lot of interested customers as well as researchers. It seems that we have come to the right place to find potential customers. I believe we have made a couple of long-term sales just by today” – Johan M. Beskow (Sales Executive) on his first day of exhibition.

A lot of guests have shown great interests in our new SGD3 system. Although it’s just released less than 1 week ago, people have already started asking for quotation from us. That is enough to keep us heavily busy the next couple of weeks right after the exhibition.

SenseGraphics is launching SGD3

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

SenseGraphics is currently at the MICCAI conference in London showing their newly developed SenseGraphics Display SGD3. This seams to be the first 120 HZ LCD based Immersive Workbench available on the market.

Think about adding dual haptics with gripping interface to this setup and voila you will have the perfect environment to develop a robotic medical simulator for your own Da Vinci robotics.

Simodont the Virtual Dental Simulator

Sunday, August 30th, 2009

The brand new Virtual Dental Simulator called Simodont,  from MOOG in the Netherlands, was presented to the public during the 35th annual meeting of the Association for Dental Education in Europe (ADEE).

SenseGraphics has been an important partner in developing the new Dental Simulator providing both software and consultancy work to MOOG. The Simodont is a unique product developed for the dental simulation market. The Simodont includes new haptics hardware that is co-located with real 3D stereo graphics allowing for real life training on virtual patients with hands-on drilling exercises and monitoring of dental mirror. 

ACTA, the dental educator in the Netherlands, has funded the development of the simulator and also ordered a number of installation.
