An attempt to control a 3D object in medical training system using leap motion

Abstract

This paper presents a user interface of 3D (three-dimensional) object converted from CT data in DICOM format using Leap Motion device that can be used as a medical training system for medical students and interns. The formed data can be controlled in a 3D development environment such as Unity. The system consists of Leap Motion device, desktop computer and the displaying software environment. The experimental results show that we can have a desirable control over the rendered object.
