Our project proposal “Improving Spatial Perception for Medical Augmented Reality with Interactable Depth Layers” was accepted for funding by the German Research Foundation (DFG). Within the next three years, we will investigate methods to improve the spatial perception for medical AR. Our objective is to determine if depth layer decompositions help to better understand spatial … Read more
On October 12, 2018, the kick-off meeting for the new BMBF-funded project AVATAR took place at the Faculty of Computer Science at Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg. Under the direction of Jun.-Prof. Dr. Christian Hansen, AVATAR will investigate new interaction and visualization techniques for virtual training of surgeons. The University Hospital Mainz, the Harvard Medical School in … Read more
This month heralds the launch of a new project in collaboration with the University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. For the next two years, medical engineers and computer scientists from the research campus STIMULATE will cooperate with scientists, gamification designers and game user researchers of the Games Institute at University of Waterloo on innovative input and output concepts for medical … Read more
Our project proposal “Automatic Online-Service to Generate Patient-Individual 3D Models to Support Therapy Decisions” was accepted for funding by the European Union and the state of Saxony-Anhalt with money from the European Fund for Regional Development. Within the next three years, we will investigate methods for the preparation of patient-individual 3D models of the prostate. … Read more
Our project proposal “Improving Spatial Perception for Medical Augmented Reality using Illustrative Rendering and Auditory Display” was accepted for funding by the German Research Foundation (DFG). Within the next three years, we will investigate methods to encode spatial information by using illustrative visualization techniques and auditory display. The results of our project should provide new insights … Read more
