Integration and Immersive Presentation of Various Head Information

Abstract

This paper describes the measurement of various head images and the presentation of integrated images on an immersive projection system (IPS). We handled optical and magnetic method to obtain the information about face, head, brain and blood vessel. The system enables to observe the inside of a head interactively using a joystick, which gives the impression to travel in a human head freely. It is thought that the integrated images are available not only for diagnosis but also treatment of a brain in the future robot surgical operation with a manipulator or a micro-machining device.
