Surgical scene visualization

In a realistic hysteroscopic simulator special interest has to be devoted to the simulation of intra-uterine bleeding, influencing the visibility of the surgical scene, until the correct adjustment of the inflow and outflow valves on the instrument are performed by the surgeon.
The aim of this project is to develop a computer model that can produce a visually appealing reconstruction of bleeding for hysteroscopic simulator. Therefore, our task incorporates the needs for real-time synthesis and responsiveness of the model to any actions introduced by the surgeon to the dynamic virtual reality environment.
