ImWeb: cross-platform immersive web browsing for online 3D neuron database exploration
summary
ImWeb is a cross-platform system that links a web front end to AR visualizations (using HoloLens) to explore an online 3D neuron database (neuromorpho.org). It queries similar neurons with deep‑learning feature vectors, compresses shapes with binary codes for real‑time rendering, and anchors AR to pages with Vuforia markers. The prototype runs on desktops, large displays and tablets, supports gaze/gesture/voice input, and is evaluated with eight students and feedback from two experts, showing usable immersive comparison and summary functions.
