You might be forgiven for thinking that IRIDAS’s industry leading
playback applications are only for the entertainment worlds of film,
broadcast, games and theme parks, but FrameCycler is also hard at work on
the leading edge of research and education in the service of science.
In April, 2003, the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm’s internationally
renowned medical university, held a film premiere unlike any before. With
the president, board members and senior faculty on-hand, the university’s
new stereoscopic projection system was demonstrated with a four minute
film depicting the development of the human embryo, and even more striking,
a four second clip showing actual cell division of neural stem cells from
the brain, a process, which only a few years ago was not even known to be
possible.
