Abstract

Adapting well-known molecular visualisation packages to accommodate the display of skeletal human remains is discussed. Features of the system include rapid generation of surfaces, real-time manipulation, viewing of the wireframe and conversion of files from the GRASP file format to one suitable for stereolithography. Additional work has adapted the viewer as a Java applet and incorporated database capabilities. Future developments for the system are discussed.
