3D Simulation of a motorized operation microscope

Markus Finke, Achim Schweikard

Abstract

We present a 3D-simulation which is used to develop automatic applications for a motorized operation microscope. It is implemented using java and java3d and enables a hardware independent evaluation of the system by the manufacturer as well as the user. An easy switch-over from simulation to the real system is possible because of software interfaces which are used to separate input and output methods. The simulation is also used to specify the parameters of the motorisation so that the microscope can be positioned accurately.
