Motivation

A neuroanatomy-based augmented reality experience powered by Python and OpenCV. Features 3D visuals of the Atlas Brain Map slices with real-time ArUco marker detection. Where a user can upload their brain scans and have potential biomarkers labelled with live computer vision. Re-envisions the way brain health records can be displayed, outside of a hospital, and within the comfort of a user’s home. It encourages people to easily access and monitor the state of their cognitive health. It’s a fast and cheap solution where all the user needs is a computer with a camera and a paper print out of ArUco markers.

ArUco Markers (4x4): 23, 40, 62, 98, 124

Atlas Brain Map Slices: Frontal, Parietal, Temporal, Occipital Lobe, Midbrain/Spine
