<P><FONT size=2>Hi,<BR><BR>For part of our demo tomorrow for the Carle Clinic we
would like to show a remote viz app.<BR>We have a special version of vic that
can be used to control a vtk application running here at Argonne.<BR>It works by
capturing mouse activity in the vic window and sending it back to an SGI
running the vtk application. The sample data set we are using is a head case
(you'll see). <BR><BR>To see this demo, you will need to have a special version
of vic obtainable from this url:<BR><BR> </FONT><A

<P><FONT size=2>download either the DirectDraw or the NoDirectDraw version
depending on whether you are running W2k (DD version) or NT (No
DD).<BR><BR>Extract it into a any directory that does <FONT
color=#ff0000><U>*not*</U></FONT><FONT color=#000000> already have a copy
of vic in it. I use \temp. Run the resulting batch file to run the demo. It will
start up the special version of vic and connect to the viz video stream. It
should only take you a couple minutes to download and run it. You can manipulate
the image with your mouse as follows:<BR><BR>remote-viz controls:<BR>l-click:
rotate<BR>m-click: pan<BR>r-click: zoom (Move the cursor up in the frame to
bring the image closer, down to move it away)<BR>control-R reset
view<BR>control-U trigger re-isosurface<BR><BR>The app is running now so you can
try it. Do not attempt this from your laptop or a poorly connected machine.
There is no floor control, so we all can fight for control at once. During the
demo, we will start here and hand off control verbally to one of the sites with
medicos and they can hand it off elsewhere then. There will not be much time,
but it is sort of cool to be able to do it so we will try.<BR><BR>I would like
to have a group test of this tomorrow morning during the node op setup time from
11 to 12:00.<BR><BR>If it doesn't work well having others control it, we will
revert to just controlling it ourselves, but you must have the special vic to
see it (this especially means those sites with medical people
present).</FONT></FONT></P>
