Augmented reality

Augmented reality approach is used for measuring and visualizing of tissue stiffness data. Augmented reality helps in medical diagnosing.

Head-controlled interface

Real-time human-computer interface is based on tracking head movements with a usual video-camera.

Physics-based simulation with GPU

GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) is used for integration of the wave equation with damping to produce real-time animation.

Modeling and visualization of nanostructures

Finite element modeling of self-positioning phenomena of anisotropic nanostructures (left - experiment, right-modeling).
