*
* port existing C++/VTK code into the slicer environment

* There are 2 parts to the development:
 
** The GUI for the calibration
 
*** use python for GUI development?
 
** TRE prediction
 
*** use numpy for the math.  HOWEVER, we need multi-threading
 
*** alternatively, we can write a CLI module for the computation

Background

The navigation information during image-guided surgeries is usually displayed in external screens which force surgeons to switch views between the surgical field and the screen during surgery. Augmented reality (AR) technology has been applied to surgeries in order to improve the navigation workflow. However, the existing AR systems are really complex and expensive, and they present important drawbacks. A new AR navigation system based on a movable tablet display and a multi-camera optical tracking system has been implemented using Slicer. Firstly, the movable tablet device allows to show the navigation information within the actual surgical field, thanks to a wireless connection with the computer. Moreover, another available functionality of this system is the possibility of showing the anatomical structures of interest from the tablet viewpoint, as looking through a window into the internal anatomy of the patient.
