  2. The Situation in early 1997 • Predominantly Sun and SGI workstations • Graphics synonymous with SGI • PCs perceived as low-end word processor and spread sheet tools • Our colleagues swore by Unix • Intel stock in $15 - $20 range

  3. Teaching Lab (CS 175) (Hoffmann) • 1997: Eight graphics PC, a server • Hosting CS 435, Undergraduate Graphics • 1997 – using J++ • 1998 – and beyond: using OpenGL and Glut

  4. Summary: PC Graphics • In 1997, a radical suggestion • Today, an accepted reality: • Students increasingly on PCs • Work also on their own machines • Competent, well-priced hardware

  5. Research • Mechanism Analysis (Sacks) • Situation Awareness (Hoffmann) • Extra-Cellular Matrix (Robinson) • Cristal Lab (Turek) • Other projects • Image analysis and model extraction • Animating algorithms for teaching • Parametric design, and more

  6. Mechanism Analysis (Sacks) • Configuration space analysis of mechanisms with intermittent contact (C-space) • Highly visual • Identifies why a design works or doesn’t • Applications: • MEMS • Automotive • Consumer goods

  7. Geneva Mechanism Intermittent motion: C-space diagrams show why bottom designs fail

  8. MEMS Applications Weapons assurance device: C-space eliminates build-and-bust approach used before

  9. Automotive Applications Automatic transmission analyzed for Ford

  10. Consumer Goods Application Film advancement mechanism analyzed for Fuji

  11. Situation Awareness (Hoffmann) • Visualization and motion of large numbers of platforms • Geometric analysis to extract mission critical information • Pre-attentive information presentation to military decision makers

  12. A Tight Spot

  13. Proximity Analysis with underlying data structures

  14. Extracellular Matrix (Robinson) • Collagen matrix that hosts the cells • Special tissue synthesis • Confocal imagery to analyze tissue

  15. Structure extraction and representation using the medial axis transform

  16. Lab John TurekChandrajit Bajaj, Richard Borgens Core Laboratory for Image Analysis & Multidimensional Applications: Division of the Purdue Center for Image Analysis & Data Visualization Basic Medical Sciences School of Veterinary Medicine

  17. Research • Implementation of a multiresolution client-server environment for fast navigation and search of high-resolution image databases (JJ Turek, CA Bouman-Electrical and Computer Engineering) • 3D visualization and quantification of the effects of IGF-1 on the morphology of chick embryo leg muscles. (J McCleerey; IU School of Medicine, JJ Turek, P Mitchell, K Hannon; Basic Medical Sciences) • Analysis of hair texture as a corollary to health using scanning electron microscopy and wavelet decomposition analysis. (JJ Turek)

  18. Predictive pre-fetching Increase/decrease region in the wavelet resolution domain Buffered client data X-Y translation within image database Server Viewed image image on client data Model of dynamic navigation and browsing of high-resolution image database via pre fetching and warping-decompression

  19. 95% Visualization of metadata attributes using Bayesian probability estimates to locate desired image features 5% Fast metadata visualization performed prior to full resolution search and Example feature extraction Region Metadata Full resolution search extraction Sample region Metadata visualization as an aid to searching a high-resolution image database on server found in search

  20. In Conclusion • Equipment put to good use • Important support for our teaching and research • Would like to ask you again…
