3D User Interfaces in medical therapy planning

The dissertation deals with 3D user interfaces in medical therapy planning. Three aspects are examined in more detail:

  • Interaction techniques
  • input devices and
  • output devices.

The goal of 3D user interfaces is to enable direct interaction with three-dimensional data through hardware. Here, the user can explore or manipulate 3D objects by e.g. pen- or gesture-based input. Stereoscopic and immersive output devices that convey motion parallax and binocular parallax, respectively, support depth perception in this process. Appropriate interaction techniques must be developed for the selected input and output devices. The application scenarios are chosen from medical therapy planning. It will be investigated how 3D user interfaces can improve or facilitate the planning of interventions.
