三维可视化信息提供了对所呈现数据的更好理解。此外，操纵或与以三维可视化的数据交互的能力是优越的上级。在医学界，增强现实被用于交互式三维（3D）可视化。这种利用计算机生成的信息增强真实的世界的可视化需要显示设备、生成3D数据的计算机以及跟踪用户的系统。然而，除了这些要求之外，还必须适当地集成硬件以确保正确的可视化。为此，我们提出了一个集成的增强现实系统的组成部分，包括一个新的头戴式投影显示器，基于Linux的PC，和一个商业上可用的光学跟踪系统。我们展示了系统的可视化解剖气道叠加在一个人的病人模拟器。
Visualizing information in three dimensions provides an increased understanding of the data presented. Furthermore, the ability to manipulate or interact with data visualized in three dimensions is superior. Within the medical community, augmented reality is being used for interactive, three-dimensional (3D) visualization. This type of visualization, which enhances the real world with computer generated information, requires a display device, a computer to generate the 3D data, and a system to track the user. In addition to these requirements, however, the hardware must be properly integrated to insure correct visualization. To this end, we present components of an integrated augmented reality system consisting of a novel head-mounted projective display, a Linux-based PC, and a commercially available optical tracking system. We demonstrate the system with the visualization of anatomical airways superimposed on a human patient simulator.
