Expectations…

As we are coming to the end of the Fall semester and nearing the end of Senior Design I (BENG 492), we wanted to update you on what we expect our prototype will include by the end of the next few weeks and give credit to the libraries and people who have helped us thus far.

We have set up a web page on a personal server that takes user inputs, chosen from drop down lists. It is accessible through the internet, and thus can be used on any device with an internet connection. From the user inputs, the generic vasculature model (provided by Dr. Cebral) is displayed on the screen with the user input plotted on the model in the proper location. We are still working on the comparison feature that allows a user to see other instances from the database properly. In addition to this, we are working on an interactive statistics page that users may choose to see that will be generated based on their inputs such as age, gender, and location.

The libraries we have used to create this web-application to supplement our code, as of right now, include functions from Three.js, WebGL, and SharkViewer, all three of which are JavaScript libraries. The process carried out by the application is conducted through the use of HTML, PHP, and Javascript. We feel it is important to note that no user information will be stored on our server in an effort to keep protected health information (PHI) private.

We will post again later and update everyone on the metrics we will base our success on and the objectives we hope to meet!
