Novel Interaction Techniques

Jun.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. Raimund Dachselt

First meeting: Thursday, 21st October 2010, 9:00 am (following meetings can be rescheduled if necessary)
Room

User Interface Lab G29-245
Credits

Sprache

Communication Language: German or English

The lab project will primarily deal with software development for novel user interfaces. The project can also be carried out as a team project. Depending on the number of participants, several topics are possible. If you are interested in examples for topics, please look at past project-pages (SoSe 2008, WiSe 2008/09, SoSe 2009, WiSe 2009/10, SoSe 2010).

If you are interested or like to get to know more, please contact Mathias Frisch. Good programming capabilities and independent scientific working style are required. The topics are appropriate for small groups of students (about 3 persons) as well as for individuals. A successfully accomplished project can also be extended to a bachelor or masters' thesis. Registering via email early in advance helps us planning the team work and tasks.

Team 1: Medical Magic Lenses

In this project, novel interaction techniques for tangible magic lenses are developed and implemented for the domain of medical applications. Hereby, the focus is on the design and implementation of a system that aims at unifying previous (mostly prototypical) techniques within a single framework. This goal shall be accomplished by using well-established frameworks, such as VTK and Qt, along with the "in-house" YidQt-library. Beyond that, advanced interaction techniques for exploring, annotating, and measuring medical volumetric data are to be realized.
