In this paper, a low cost and portable 3D user interface for exploring medical data is presented. By means of a data glove, equipped with five bend sensors and an accelerometer, and a Wiimote, which tracks additional InfraRed Light Emitting Diodes placed on the glove, 3D imaging data can be visualized and manipulated in a semi-immersive virtual environment.

Abstract

In this paper, a low cost and portable 3D user interface for exploring medical data is presented. By means of a data glove, equipped with five bend sensors and an accelerometer, and a Wiimote, which tracks additional InfraRed Light Emitting Diodes placed on the glove, 3D imaging data can be visualized and manipulated in a semi-immersive virtual environment. The paper also details the interaction techniques we specifically designed for a medical imaging scenario and provides implementation details of the integration of the interface in an open-source medical image viewer.
