Abstract

We want to enable the user to explore volume data in a novel way. Using the Kinect camera, we obtain depth information that is then used to calculate a cutting plane. Moving objects in front of the camera, e.g. a sheet of paper or ones hands, back and forth, the cutting plane is moved through the volume data, creating an intuitive way for exploration. Additional parameters are exposed in the GUI to modify depth information.
