PROJECT_STATUS04_TITLE=An Interactive, Navigational Environment for Viewing the Anatomy of the Eye
PROJECT_STATUS05_DESCR=The main idea of the proposal, allowing the user to navigate
through a complex 3D model of the eye anatomy has not changed.
We have decided to modify and add a few features. The main
change has to do with interaction.  We have decided that the
user will also be able to view the complex dynamics of
the system, in addition to freely navigating through it. The
main idea is that the user may "activate" a certain part of
the anatomy by pointing to it. This part of the anatomy will
then animate to represent its true dynamics.  For this 
purpose, we divided the model into a functional model, which
is implemented using WTK's geometry and polygon functions,
and a static model, designed using 3DStudio. The functional
model consists of the lens, fibers, and iris and the static
model, for which the dynamics will not be explored consists
of the cornea, sclera, optic nerve, and other outer muscles.
The user will be able to interact with the functional model,
and navigate through the entire model. 
PROJECT_STATUS06_WDONE=We have implemented the complete functional model using
WTK libraries, and created a few realistic textures for
texture mapping them. We have began implementation of the
event handling, and scene graph implementation. We have also
created some models using 3DStudio, which will be used for
the static model.
PROJECT_STATUS07_INPUT=Mouse
PROJECT_STATUS08_OUTPT=Monitor\0Virtual i-glasses
PROJECT_STATUS09_SYSTM=Sense8 WorldToolkit\0Sense8 WorldUp
PROJECT_STATUS10_DEADL=We plan to finish the static model and add texture mapping
to it. We then plan to integrate this model with the 
functional model and add level-of-detail nodes for faster
navigation through the model.
