About

ZINC is a browser extension for the Mozilla Platform that embeds the cmgui visualisation engine. It can be thought of as a plugin, but it is actually a very complex extension that also includes a plugin for rendering cmgui scenes into the web page.

Applications

These are some of the applications developed using this plugin. Clicking on a link will run the application.

Digitally signed:

Simple_cube (Cmiss example a1, working)

Heart_fibres (Cmiss example a3, working)

Heart_vessels (Cmiss example a4, working)

Not yet signed (require "signed.applets.codebase_principal_support" privilege, see Installation Instructions):

Endoscope_animation (working)

Melanoma_heat_maps (working)

Boxfish (working)

Eye_model (mostly working, time dependent transformations need to be updated due to region/field changes so that the eye deforms and iris contracts)

Digitiser (mostly working, dicom images do not look as good due to changes in imagemagick libraries and filtering guis are being redeveloped to work with region/field changes)

Ecg_lab (not currently working, fields need to be updated due to region/field changes)

As well as running zinc applications from a webserver, you can also download them and run them locally. See How to run zinc applications locally for more information.

See ZINC applications info for some history on the different applications.
