Project Description
Objective
- Incorporate new data converters, which have not been implemented in Slicer OpenIGTLink IF module.
- Brainstorming for grant proposal.
Approach, Plan
- Data converters in OpeniGTLink IF module:
- String (currently in OpenIGTLink Remote)
- Sensors (implemented in Robot Interface Module (currently in private repository))
- Capability
- Brainstorming for grant proposal.
- Infrastructure for real-time data streaming (for realtime imaging, fast tracking)
- Definition of communication schemes in real-time imaging, research interface in navigation systems, and robotic devices
Progress
- Identified data types available outside the module
- Sensor (corresponds to vtkMRMLIGTLSensorNode)
- Status (corresponds to vtkMRMLIGTLStatusNode)
- String (corresponds to vtkMRMLIGTLStringNode)
- Trajectory (corresponds to vtkMRMLAnnotationTextNode)
- Submitted feature request in [1]
