Abstract:
In this paper we present a web-based remote visualization system. The system makes use of video stream based techniques to reduce the network bandwidth requirements and is capable of performing interactive volume rendering on computed tomography data in real-time. The technique allows embedding interactive volume rendering into a website. The concrete contribution of this paper is twofold. First, we outline a Microsoft Silverlight based implementation of the prototype and describe the applied video encoding techniques. Furthermore we present experimental results that allow evaluating the system in terms of latency and image quality. In particular, we show that the additional delay of stream based remote visualization is very small if compared to picture based techniques.
