[AG-TECH] How to share multiple JPEG or TIFF images

[John I. Quebedeaux, Jr]

Hmmm.... oddly enough Tigerboard was designed for something like this in
mind ­ it doesn¹t stream, it will transfer and sync images between clients,
and then display images at their full or scaled down if resolution is
lower...  and have a shared pointer, etc.

But unfortunately it¹s no longer under development and the programmer didn¹t
release the source code to the agency it was done under, we just have the
last fixed package. I¹m rather disappointed in that. I would think it would
still work ­ you can import images/folders of images into it and there is a
copy of the package in the Argonne venue server lobby I see.

It has a built in server if you don¹t want to run it via the Access Grid
Venue Server (i.e. You can connect the client through a Tigerboard server or
through the Access Grid Venue Server venue you¹re in, it¹s up to you). If
you copy the package and rename it as .zip and open it up, you can run the
application (server or client) separately (there were script or batch files
accordingly for Windows or *nix OS¹s.

I honestly haven¹t run it in a little while now, so I¹m not sure if it¹s
still working...

Hi Thomas:

Thank you for your quick reply.

Thomas my goal is share images of live malaria parasites.
I would like these images to be as high resolution as possible as
the parasites are micrometers in size and right at the edge of what you
can see using light microscopy. So while both vpcscreen and
ScreenStreamer are great, I really want to share the images in all
their high resolution beauty. So what do I have to do to your
SharedImageViewer to let interested viewers see the images as
they come off of the camera?

regards,

west suhanic
