STF Hartree

This successful completion of this project will allow us to render detailed 3D information of a patient in an operating theatre in real-time for use in virtual reality (VR).

The Hartree Centre helps UK businesses and organisations of any size to explore and adopt supercomputing, data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies for enhanced productivity, smarter innovation and economic growth. Backed by significant UK government funding and strategic partnerships with industry leaders such as IBM, Atos  and the University of Liverpool, the Hartree Centre is home to some of the most advanced digital technologies and experts in the UK.

I3DR has been collaborating with them to refine a stereo matching algorithm to allow true real-time rendering of 3D data.

Lockdown presented some significant challenges for this project.
