Crumbs, A Tool for Scientific Visualization
Crumbs is a virtual reality application used for visualizing, exploring, and measuring features within volumetric data sets (FIGURE B-1). Crumbs is a robust general-purpose tool that makes use of a variety of display paradigms and data manipulation options, allowing a researcher to explore volumetric data in intuitive and powerful ways. It is designed to “make the visualization and identification of complex biological structures easier” [Brady et al. 1995]. The motivation for developing Crumbs stems from the fact that many biological structures are difficult to identify and measure with traditional image analysis techniques and two-dimensional visualization interfaces.
