At the end of last year, Jeroen Verschuur successfully defended his M.Sc. thesis on the development of a remote client-server visualisation framework for large histological datasets.

We are currently in the process of getting his source code ready for an open source release. At the same time, we are planning to roll out his system, including 3D viewer client, on this server, initially with a subset of the full orbita data collection. Over time, we’ll continue adding more datasets to the viewer.

We’ll keep you posted on our progress!

Two of our project members, Prof. Huib Simonsz and Sander Schutte, are at the ARVO 2008 in Florida. Sander will be presenting a talk “Biomechanics of Orbital Fat and Eye Muscles” on Sunday morning at 10:00 in the Grand Floridian A/B.

On Thursday he will be presenting the Visible Orbit poster “A Client-Server System for Remote 3D-Visualization of Orbital Anatomy” in Hall B/C. The poster details our current progress on the new client-server 3-D visualization system for histological data. Be sure to stop by and say hello!

Stay tuned for more site updates in the following days.

By the time you read this, this website will have gone live.  Going to http://visible-orbit.org/ or to http://visibleorbit.org/ will send you right here.

I’ve ported and updated most of the content from the old website.  Sincere thanks to Sim IJskes and QCG for hosting us all this time.

The new Visible Orbit site is coming to you from a brand-new RHEL-powered Sun server hosted at the TU Delft data centre.  Please bear with us as we port content from the old site.
