position and to move (x,y,z) object in 3D Scene

Support
1

I would like to know whether the package 3D Slicer ( C++ Windows OS) provides APIs which allow to position and to move (x,y,z) object in 3D Scene ( build from DICOM CT scan files) and update the object position R.T (10 Hz) in the scene.
Could you please provide an example code that shows how to do it?

Thanks
Kobi

Yes, this should be no problem at all. Slicer is used widely in various real-time image guidance and robotic applications. In general, achieving 30Hz update rate should be no problem. See SlicerIGT website for more details and lots of step-by-step tutorials. You can also do all these real-time object manipulations in virtual reality, using 6-DoF controllers.

Hi Andras,

Thank you for your valuable information. I looked over the material and it looks like it is a very good platform to be based on.

I tried to investigate it a little further, unfortunately, I got some error (see below) when I built the package SlicerIGT-mater using CMake. The file “SlicerConfig.cmake” is missing and I couldn’t find it in either one of the packages ( the above and the Slicer-master).

I appreciate your assistance.

CMake did not find one.

You don’t need to build SlicerIGT but you can install it from the extension manager.

If you want to build an extension then you need to build Slicer first, then follow these instructions.

Andres,

Thanks for ref material.

I attached 5 slides describe shortly what we are trying to do and my general understating about the 3DSlicer+ Extensions.

In slide #6, I added some questions.

I would appreciate your advice.
