[POSTER] Volume Lens: Exploring Medical Volume Datasets Using Mobile Devices
Chris Heinrich, Tobias Langlotz, Richard A. O’Keefe · 2017
Volume data representations are widely used in many different domains including medical imaging. Here, they are primarily accessed using WIMP interfaces on desktop PCs, while the use of handheld mobile devices to browse volume data is widely ignored. In this work, we present Volume Lens, an approach for displaying volume datasets on mobile hardware by implementing a novel interface that turns the mobile device into an exploration tool. The user can physically interact with the mobile device to interactively slice through the displayed virtual volume. The displayed slice is based on the position of the mobile device within the environment. We present our approach together with a explorative study gaining feedback from experts in the medical domain.
