Project Description

Objective

• Add module for registration using linear features

Approach, Plan

• Investigate module use cases:
  • Ultrasound calibration for PLUS
  • ...
• Use Fiducial Registration Wizard module as a template
• Investigate whether linear features can be treated in the same way as fiducials

Progress

• See: LinearObjectRegistration
• Discussed generic module for collecting/defining parametric features:
  • Use data structure to store a set of 0D/1D/2D parametric features
  • For each feature, store raw point data, as well as basic information (i.e. centroid, variance, etc.)
  • Individual registration algorithms are implemented as modules using the data structure
  • Individual algorithm is responsible for converting 0D/1D/2D data to points/lines/planes (if applicable)
