Hey tech enthusiasts,
I'm
thrilled to announce that I've just deployed a virtual reality
experience that takes Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) to the next level.
Imagine walking through the intricate neural pathways of the human
brain, visualized as a mesmerizing network of point clouds—now possible
in full VR.
Try it here: https://diffusion-tensor-imaging.netlify.app
The experience is based on DTI data from the Tractome project, which you can explore right here:
- Tractome Dataset: https://github.com/FBK-NILab/tractome
Grab
your favorite VR headset—like the Meta Quest—and get ready for an
immersive adventure that lets you journey through the brain in a
completely new way. Whether you’re a neuroscientist, a VR enthusiast, or
just someone curious about the inner workings of the mind, this is your
chance to dive deep into brain connectivity, like never before.
For
those who want to dive under the hood, I've shared the source code to
create the point cloud LAS dataset, which you can find here:
- MetaBrain DTI Point Cloud: https://github.com/favreau/MetaBrain/tree/main/DTI
This repository provides everything you need to generate these beautiful visualizations and bring them into VR.
So, put on that headset, fire up the point cloud, and get ready to be amazed by the beauty of the brain.
Happy exploring!
