Hi Everyone,<br>
<br>
Happy Holiday! I just want to give you some update on this past meeting.<br>
<br>
Luis, Ziv, and me went to the Slicer-IGT meeting in Boston last week.
As for our future effort to contribute to this community, we will keep
working on the tracker code and integrate it with Slicer 3.0.
Currently, Luis is experimenting adding observer to TrackerTool to send
igstkTransform over socket(vtkSocketCommunicator), which can be
received by Slicer daemons. The initial result is good and we will
keep working on it at AHM in Utah next month.<br>
<br>

<br>
Some take home points for IGSTK group from this meeting are:<br>
<h2><span class="mw-headline"> Georgetown Action Items </span></h2>
<ul>
<li> Integrate IGSTK into Slicer3 (compiling and linking)
</li>
<li> Enable socket communication for TrackerTool to send transform to
Slicer3
<ul>
<li> Use VTKSocketCommunicator to package and send
IGSTKTransform, need to have a receive end on Slicer3 side
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li> Possibly add KWWidget GUI suppport
</li>
<li> Video Capturing (w. Stoll, Hata, Frank, Patrick)
</li>
<li> Need to discuss how the module would look like for the RFA
application
</li>
<li> Support JHU and Queens to use IGSTK?
<ul>
<li> Sending transform and images over socket - solution exists
</li>
<li> Support OptoTrack
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
