Date: Wed, 14 Apr 2004 12:28:32 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2655.55) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Sender: owner-info-volumizer@els.sgi.com Precedence: bulk Reply-To: info-volumizer@els.sgi.com Hello Volumizers, SGI is excited to announce the release of OpenGL Volumizer 2.6 for the SGI Visualization System for Linux! OpenGL Volumizer is the industry's first commercially available, high-level volume rendering application programming interface (API) for the energy, manufacturing, medical, and sciences markets. OpenGL Volumizer is a revolutionary graphics API designed for interactive, high quality, scalable visualization of large volumetric data sets. OpenGL Volumizer provides a high-level interface to OpenGL hardware to allow application writers and researchers to visualize multiple gigabytes of volumetric data. The API uses OpenGL for volume rendering and hence allows standard graphics applications to treat volumetric and surface data in a similar fashion. This is the first in a series of software releases by SGI to support the new Visualization System for Linux, a 64-bit Linux system. Over the coming months you will see additional support for the Visualization System for Linux across all of our supported graphics APIs. OpenGL Volumizer 2.6 also still supports 32-bit Linux systems running Red Hat 8.0 and above and the Silicon Graphics Onyx4 UltimateVision system. We have updated the OpenGL Volumizer web site to reflect this additional support. Take a look: http://www.sgi.com/software/volumizer/ As with both the IRIX and 32-bit Linux support, the US List Price for the 64-bit Linux run-time license is $750, with discounts available for volume purchases (5, 10, and 50 licenses). There is also a 28 day evaluation license available for download on the OpenGL Volumizer web site. For developers, we also have an OEM licensing option available. For further detail on this, please contact me directly. Download information can be found at: http://www.sgi.com/software/volumizer/downloads.html For a complete list of the new features supported within OpenGL Volumizer 2.6 please see the release notes: http://www.sgi.com/software/volumizer/relnotes_2.6.pdf Please fell free to contact me should you require additional information.

I guess, you mean that the data looks a bit 'stretched' from one of the axes? By default, Volumizer uses (0, 0, 0) - (1, 1, 1) as the object space size of a shape. So, the default offset for a vzBlock is (0, 0, 0) and size is (1, 1, 1) and the same holds true for the geometryROI of the corresponding vzParameterVolumeTexture. You can scale and translate your volume data abitrarily in object space by controlling the geometry of the shape and the geometryROI of the texture data. See /usr/share/Volumizer2/data/XML/twoVolumes.vz for an example which specifies two shapes which are scaled and translated in object space. hth, Praveen ----- Original Message ----- From: "Yi Mu" To: "sgi" Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2004 8:48 PM Subject: [info-volumizer] distort image > Hi, all > I try to use volumizer to render the visible human data, I used basic > viewer to read the data and I only use one vzBlock, when I rotate the > human body, it looks distorted, can anybody tell me why and how to fixed > it? thanks a lot.

It will be held in Ames, Iowa May 13-14. It has an outstanding technical program with paper contributions from around the world. SGI is a sponsor and will participate in a number of ways. SGI participation in IPT will include the following: * Simon Hayhurst, SGI Product Line Manager, will participate in a panel contrasting scalable, shared-memory systems vs. graphics clusters for VR. * David Hughes, SGI European Marketing Manager for Visualization, will present a paper outlining new techniques for solving Media Fusion problems with shared memory, GPU based systems. * The SGI booth will showcase our new shared memory, GPU based system, Onyx4, showing stereo and non-stereo demos with our new compositing technology. We will demonstrate a low cost Viz Everywhere Stereo Display as well as a 9 million pixel ViewSonic Monitor being driven by multiple graphics heads. Overall Highlights of IPT 2004: * Keynote Address by Dr. Jose Encarnacao, from Fraunhoffer IGD a pioneer in the area of graphics, interactive systems and virtual reality. * Geoff Dorn from the BP Center will provide the invited talk, sharing his experiences in industrial and academic research environments * Panel with participation from the main technology providers to discuss future trends on computing/graphics systems for IPT * An excellent exhibit area with displays of the latest technology from HP, SGI, E&S, Orad, Ascension Technology and other key players in IPT technology. * Plenty of time to make and meet friends during the IPT breakfasts and lunches. We will have "Discussion Tables" during the IPT-provided meals so attendees will have an informal setting to share information about specific topics of interest. * An evening of enchantment in the Iowa State University botanical gardens, Reiman Gardens. IPT attendees can explore and interact with butterflies from around the world in the butterfly conservatory, visit a rain forest, enjoy an evening walk around the rose garden, enjoy and excellent Iowa dinner, and hang out with their colleagues. Come join us at IPT 2004. Information on how to register and travel to the IPT 2004 workshop is available in the following web site: http://www.vrac.iastate.edu/ipt2004/location.htm Thank You- Thomas. -------------------------------------------- Thomas Tannert VSG Marketing - SGI E-mail: ttannert@sgi.com Phone: (650) 933 5237
