Hospital delirium is the current accepted name for this condition. It covers much more than sleep. It includes the stress of complex and potentially life threatening medical and social conditions, confusion related to time of day and time u

Doing what you describe (getting an off-axis laser transmission hologram and playing around with it) is one of the best ways I know to build intuition about light fields. A hologram is essentially a dense surface of light field emitters.

Is the goal to have a "walk around hologram": one that you can look through from one side and see a real image projection on the other? If so, what you propose won't work for a couple of reasons. First, you're flipping t

Funny to see this item on HN. I taught holography with Steve Benton at MIT, and put together a few of the documents available at MIT Open Courseware referenced in the document. The material is pretty specific to the optics of diffractive el

No, it can't. WebGL is at a completely different level of the stack than Datashader. WebGL is even lower level than what most people use for 3D graphics (hence threejs and babylonjs). Data visualization is at a higher semantic level t

If you watch the video, one of the creators explains this point, which makes datashader different from, say, Bokeh. (Pipeline explained around 7:20 in the video) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6m3CFbKmK_c D3 and Bokeh and

Looks like a great project. Contrary to other comments, rendering != visualization. This project seems to have paid attention to lots of the seemingly little but critical details of this type of visualization that are a pain to handle yours

This is my project that we recently started at Brigham and Women's Hospital to make community-authored, high quality anatomical information available wherever it is needed, for free. End users will have quality digital anatomy atlases.

The opposite problem is a compelling one as well. My transplant surgeon says that "Snow White isn't going to be your organ donor", meaning that patients must understand that every organ will have flaws and exposure to disease

That's because transplants save thousands of lives every year, rapidly turning some of the sickest people this side of death into healthy, productive, living individuals. As a liver transplant survivor, it's hard to describe how

In addition, different organs need different amounts of immunosuppression. Livers are used to filtering random things and thus the body is more tolerant of livers (needs less immunosuppression). Some older liver transplant recipients can a

Perhaps someone with more experience can answer this question: is this an exceptionally large contract ($247 million)? The article implies that it covers the plane and its delivery, not the whole research project.
