Volume Slicing Display University of Tokyo

(one of the incredible applications of augmented reality presented at Laval Virtual 2009, Laboratory Footage)

FR: Une application très intéressante de la réalité augmentée et notamment dans le domaine médical. Grâce à une simple feuille de papier, vous pourrez explorer le corps humain.

EN: A system for interactive exploration of volumetric data using a tangible screen, called the Volume Slicing Display. The system tracks the shape and the position of a passive screen (a piece of plexiglass) on 3D space using a custom monocular high-speed vision system (Vision Chip) or Artoolkit markers; then a set of projectors project the corresponding slice of a 3D virtual object on the surface in real time. This experimental interface will enable multiple users to feel as if 3D virtual objects co-exist in real space, as well as to explore them interactively using cheap passive projection surfaces (plexiglass or even paper).

Sorry, misinterpreted this tech.

I don't see how you expect anyone to believe this when the image being sliced doesn't match the area it's scanning.
