VGL® is the industry's leading, award winning volume graphics software development environment. It provides 3D computer graphics capabilities for voxel data that have only be known in classical polygon based 3D graphics. Furthermore VGL combines both - volume and OpenGL polygon graphics - in a single 3D graphics environment. The synergy of combining the inherent advantages of both graphics technologies opens up new possibilities for software products in healthcare, industry and science.

VGL Key Features

  • VGL is a C++ class graphics library with comfortable API including a powerful scene graph level.
  • VGL provides the most powerful set of features on the market for the visualization of voxel data.
  • VGLs unique resource management allows to handle largest data sets on a standard PC. Its highly effective memory access routines enable the simple and painless integration of VGL technology into existing applications. VGL allows to access the voxel data to be rendered from existing data structures within your application, thus making it unnecessary to duplicate large memory amounts in your application.
  • VGL provides ultra fast software volume renderers, e.g. volume ray-tracer, iso-surface rendering, MIP, and X-ray, as well as hardware accelerated volume renderers. All renderers can be combined in a single scene, e.g. to visualize different tissue with different renderers.
  • VGL allows the seamless integration of volume rendered objects into OpenGL based graphics applications.
  • VGL is available for:
    • Windows Vista, XP, 2000  (IA 32 and AMD64/EM64T )
    • Linux  (IA 32 and AMD64/EM64T)
    • MAC OS X
    • other Unix OS on request
  • VGL enables easy cross-platform software development.
  • VGL enables fast and economic software development within the areas of medical, industrial and scientific data visualization, image processing and analysis.
