= Overview =
 
 
 
The Open IGT Link protocol is a simple but extensible data format to transfer various types of data among software and devices used in image-guided therapy (IGT) scene e.g. surgical navigation software, tracking device, robotic device, imaging scanner. The protocol can handle image, tracking data, transform, device control and monitoring command, and other user-defined data types. It is designed to work in the application layer of the TCP/IP stack, but not limited to it; developers can use this protocol with UDP/IP or other network protocol models. ''3D Slicer''' supports Open IGT Link and has interface module as '''OpenIGTLinkIF''', which is currently available in [http://www.slicer.org/DownloadSlicer.php/Nightly the nightly release].
 
 
 
This is a generalization of the previous [[Tracker Daemon]].
 
 
 
= What's New =
 
*'''January 8, 2008''', Added a link to [http://www.slicer.org/slicerWiki/index.php/Modules:OpenIGTLinkIF the new OpenIGTLink Slicer interface documentation].
 
*'''December 19, 2008''', [[OpenIGTLink/Library| The OpenIGTLink Library]] now works with Solaris 8 and 10.  (Tested with GNU C++ compiler. We haven't tested on Solaris 9.)
 
*'''November, 2008''',  3D Slicer OpenIGTLink Interface module is now available in the 3D Slicer trunk repository. It is coming with several new features. (you need to enable OpenIGTLink option explicitly before compiling the 3D Slicer)
 
*'''Oct 20, 2008''', Several updates in [[OpenIGTLink/Matlab]] page. Now Matlab OpenIGTLink interface supports sending transform data.
 
*'''Sep 5, 2008''', OpenIGTLink was presented in MICCAI 2008 Workshop on [http://smarts.lcsr.jhu.edu/CAI-Workshop-2008 Systems and Architectures for Computer Assisted Interventions]. The slides are available [[OpenIGTLink/Workshop/miccai2008 | here]].
