Project Description

Objective Approach and Plan Progress and Next Steps
  • Discuss with other interested parties the value of HoloLens integration
  • HoloLens deemed not worth the effort at this time
  • Discussion changed to OpenVR integration as a visualization platform from Slicer
    • 20% - Upgrade Slicer to VTK >= 553a8bc0dd32889cc0eef49f2462e9b7e7ae81e3 (updated OpenVR support)
    • 20% - Enable support for a single application to instantiate multiple factory overrides of vtkRenderer, vtkRenderWindow, etc...
      • Subclass ctkVTKRenderView, ctkVTKAbstractView with -> ctkVTKVRRenderView, ctkVTKVRAbstractView such that they instantiate vtkOpenVRRenderer, vtkOpenVRRenderWindow, etc... instead of factory overridden default
    • 60% - Extend Slicer to use new OpenVR related classes
      • Create classes qMRMLVRView, qMRMLVRWidget, etc...
      • Update layout manager to support new view type
