3D reconstruction and quantification of porous structures
(2008)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this paper, we describe the methodology that we have designed to quantify the pores distribution in bone implants and the empirical results that we have obtained with BioCAD designed scaffolds, microCT and confocal ... -
An Adaptive Cutaway with Volume Context Preservation
(Springer Berlin / Heidelberg, 2009-11-26)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyKnowledge expressiveness of scientific data is one of the most important visualization goals. However, current volume visualization systems require a lot of expertise from the final user. In this paper, we present a ... -

Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe paper presents a 3D Virtual Environment (VE) for neurorehabilitation of the upper limb. Patients move one of their arms trying to simulate concrete daily actions, such as grasping a bottle, opening a door or putting ... -
Assisted navigation for 3D serious games training
(2013)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policySerious games in 3D virtual environments are becoming a popular tool for professional training activities as well as for rehabilitation. Navigation in 3D is recognized as one of the activity which is more dificult to master ... -
Bio-CAD analysis of porosity bioimplants
(2008)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this work we present two methods to compute the porosity from a μCT image. One is the virtual simulation of a porosimeter and the other is a sphere-based heuristic approach. Both methods obtain a graph representing the ... -
Efficient complementary viewpoint selection in volume rendering
(2013)
Conference report
Open AccessA major goal of visualization is to appropriately express knowledge of scientific data. Generally, gathering visual information contained in the volume data often requires a lot of expertise from the final user to setup ... -
First-person locomotion in 3D virtual environments: a usability analysis
(2014)
Article
Open Access3D Virtual Environments (VE) are becoming popular as a tool for cognitive, functional and psychological assessment. Navigation in these environments is recognized as one of the most difficult activities in 3D Virtual ... -
