Requirements
In this Bachelor Seminar Course (Proseminar), each student is asked to present one topic related to medical augmented reality and user interfaces. In order to successfully complete the seminar, participants are required to:
- Present the selected subject to the other participants (30 minutes, followed by a short discussion).
- Submit a written report (10 pages content maximum), typeset in LaTeX, and participate in the reviewing process
- Attend all seminar sessions and participate.
Each presentation is followed by a discussion and everyone is encouraged to actively participate. The report must include all references used and must be written completely in your own words.

For Windows users:- install miktex - TeX implementation for Microsoft Windows
- install TeXnicCenter - integrated development environment (IDE) for developing LaTeX-documents on Microsoft Windows
- Use the The Not So Short Introduction to LaTex to get started with LaTex.
- Use this latex template for the essay.
- Please use this PPT template.
- How to Present a Paper in Theoretical Computer Science: A Speaker's Guide for Students by Ian Parberry
- The outline should be sent to the supervisor four weeks before the presentation.
- The presentation slides and essay should be finalized and discussed with the supervisor one week before the presentation.
- The essay is due at the day of the last presentation of the seminar.

| Abstract: | Augmented Reality (AR) is a research topic that is currently obtaining a lot of attention and media coverage. While the current AR hype is mainly due to AR on mobile devices, there is a long history of AR applications for industrial and medical use. Especially in the medical domain, the idea of using AR to have a "x-ray"-view into the patient e.g. during a running surgery is very appealing and would bring a lot of benefits to surgeons. In this seminar the most important technologies, issues and applications of medical AR are covered. Different display and tracking technologies, issues like registration and depth perception and a range of applications will be discussed in detail. Another related topic is user interfaces for medical applications. There is an increasing number of devices and information in the OR. On one side this has a lot of advantages for the surgeon, on the other side the surgeon has to handle many devices and has to process all the information. Furthermore interaction with devices is difficult as the surgeon has to be sterile and can not use mouse and keyboard. So there is an increasing interest in novel user interfaces using e.g. gestures. |
