Abstract
One application of augmented reality (AR) is AR medical
imaging. This technique helps physicians in analyzing medical data and
preparing surgical procedures. In this paper we present a preliminary
report on our efforts to implement a set of in-situ interaction techniques
in AR medical imaging, supporting display and interaction with AR data
on the patient's body.We briefly motivate our approach, review the state
of the art and explain our ideas about displaying, tracking and interacting
with in-situ AR medical data using tangible physical tools. We describe
our current work, present our designed tools, scalpel and tweezers, and
explain how they are integrated in a motion tracking system.
