The paranasal sinuses: three-dimensional reconstruction, photo-realistic imaging, and virtual endoscopy

“…This situation prevented the use of software on a different computer. In our technique, it was possible for users to apply all features of software and to perform VE wherever the internet is available [38].…”

Volume Ray Casting in WebGL

“…Some delays are expected because of the network performance, and the interpreted nature of JavaScript. Our implementation 8 does not show a significant overhead for the server to present the data in 3D as occurs in Mahmoudi et al (2009), therefore allowing more clients to be connected simultaneously. As a logical conclusion, more powerful clients are required to handle this approximation.…”

“…Volume rendering is a common technique for visualizing volumetric datasets along with multi-planar reconstructions (MPR). Storage and distribution of these 3D images usually requires a Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS), which normally uses specialized workstation software (Meyer-Spradow et al (2009), Fogal & Kruger (2010)) for interactive visualization (Mahmoudi et al (2009)). Reference Kabongo et al (2009) presents on some of the few implementations of volumetric data displays.…”

Design Methodology for Appropriate Technology: Engineering as if People Mattered

“…3D-based draft with simple information is useful for local construction workers in parts manufacturing and AT assembling. For some cases, supporting tools such as 3D-modeling software [68,69] or 3D-printing [70,71] are considerably useful to provide visible modeling in an affordable process, yet due to the characteristics of AT in localizing resources through a soft approach [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13], such options must be taken by using locally available ones. If these characteristics are ignored, a designed AT will surely lose its appropriateness.…”
