Project Description

The MITK supports streaming IGT Data via OpenIGTLink for several months now. When trying to send and receive data to/from the plus toolkit several issues were noticed. During the project week a concrete plan for a solid integration of different platforms via OpenIGTLink should be investigated.

Objective	Approach and Plan	Progress and Next Steps
The objective is to solidify the current way of MITK-Plus integration on the side of the MITK platform. In detail, it should be ensured that the integration is done optimally utilizing the PLUS toolkit to its fullest potential. Two simple scenarios must be realizable: Use PLUS Toolkit to connect to imaging device and stream image data to MITK Acquire image data with MITK and use PLUS Toolkit to post-process	Determine current status of integration. Find out key weaknesses of current implementation. Develop integration strategy.
