Abstract

Recently 3D scenes are used in medical fields. We developed a medical 3D microscope with a HMD. We mounted two cameras on the 3D microscope. Incoming images through an object lens of an optical microscope are projected on sensors of mounted cameras by using reflector mirrors. These are processed in a computer and sent to HMD by wireless communications. However, there is the problem about 3D imaging display. Two camera images are easily distorted due to the defect in the 3D microscope and the color of the images are also a little changed because of the color characteristics of the cameras. In this paper, we suggested the method to correct the geometric and color distortion of the stereo camera image and real time implementation of these methods using GPU. We used a wireless HMD for ease of use by doctors. This system would be helpful for doctors to operate more comfortably.
