Abstract
A method for mutually mapping first three-dimensional data C1 and second three-dimensional shape or a two-dimensional image by specifying a plurality of correspondence points RP, wherein the first three-dimensional data C1 are displayed on a display screen and a contour line TU designating the height in the depth direction is displayed within the first three-dimensional data C1, and the contour line TU is used as a guide marker of the position of the correspondence points RP in the depth direction.
Claims20
A method for mutually mapping first three-dimensional shape data to second three-dimensional shape data or a two-dimensional image, comprising the steps of:
- displaying a first shape based on the three-dimensional shape data;
- within said displayed data, displaying indicator that correspond to a depth direction of the shape, wherein a position of the displayed indicator functions as guide marker of a correspondence point position relative said indicator position along the depth direction;
- and
- accepting specifying of a position of the correspondence point by an user.
A method for mutually mapping a first three-dimensional shape data to a second three-dimensional shape data or a two-dimensional image, comprising the steps of:
- displaying a first two-dimensional image mapped to a first three-dimensional shape data;
- displaying indicator relating to the depth direction of the first three-dimensional shape data within the displayed first two-dimensional image, so as to use the indicator as guide markers of the position of a correspondence point along a depth direction;
- and
- accepting specifying of a position of the correspondence point by an user.
A method for mutually mapping a first three-dimensional shape data to a second three-dimensional shape data or a two-dimensional image, comprising the steps of:
- displaying a shape based on the first three-dimensional shape data;
- accepting specifying and inputting of a positions of the correspondence points by an user;
- determining the distance between the inputted correspondence points;
- and
- issuing a warning when the determined distance is less than a predetermined value.
A method for mutually mapping a first three-dimensional shape data to a second three-dimensional shape data or a two-dimensional image, comprising the steps of:
- displaying a shape based on the first three-dimensional shape data;
- accepting specifying and inputting of a positions of the correspondence points by an user;
- and
- displaying semitransparent spheres of a certain radius as the center of those correspondence points, so as to use these spheres as guide markers of the density of the correspondence points.
