由不同类型的传感或计算机模拟生成的三维数据集（体素数据集）正在迅速成为从生物医学到生物物理学的各个学科的关键。Phoxel-Space是一个界面，可以通过物理材料探索这些数据集。它旨在通过允许用户直观地导航和理解复杂的三维数据集来克服传统平面显示的局限性。该系统的工作原理是允许用户操纵自由形式的几何形状，其表面相交的体素数据集。将三维体素值投影回物理材料的表面，以显示数据集的非平面部分。本文介绍了如何接口可以被用来作为一个代表性的援助，在几个示例应用领域，克服了传统的平面显示器的许多限制。
Three-dimensional datasets (voxel datasets), generated by different types of sensing or computer simulations, are quickly becoming crucial to various disciplines - from biomedicine to geophysics. Phoxel-Space is an interface that enables the exploration of these datasets through physical materials. It aims at overcoming the limitations of traditional planar displays by allowing users to intuitively navigate and understand complex 3-dimensional datasets. The system works by allowing the user to manipulate a freeform geometry whose surface intersects a voxel dataset. The intersected voxel values are projected back onto the surface of the physical material to reveal a non-planar section of the dataset. The paper describes how the interface can be used as a representational aid in several example application domains, overcoming many limitations of conventional planar displays.
