Motivation: Non-invasive surgery
Aim: Simulator for surgeons training.
Difficulties: Real-time deformable model for the liver,
force feedback, realistic rendering.

We rely on the graphics hardware for performing real-time collision
detection between the liver model and the surgical tools.
Real-time animation is achieved thanks to an adaptive model that
automatically concentrates computations where needed.
Realistic visualisation is provided thanks to a multi-pass rendering.
The liver surface is covered with undistorted cells
thanks to a new texturing techniques that non-periodically maps a few
precomputed patterns on triangles that tile the surface.
Animated textures are used for enhancing the changes of the liver's
surface aspect under the tools actions. Details on realistic rendering |
