Viewer4d - License and Download

The program viewer4d is freely available "as is" under the GNU LGPL license, with open source code, also based solely on other open source packages. Copyright belongs to Centre for Biomedical Image Analysis, Faculty of Informatics, Masaryk University.

Download

The ZIP archive with binaries for Debian Linux systems should be just unzipped anywhere and executed from that directory. Note that these binaries were compiled without the support of the Bioformarts boundle. A possible workaround is to open the image in FiJi and save there as TIFF.

On Windows you may need to download and install the MS Visual Compiler 2015 Redistributable pack (vcredist_x64.exe [13.9 MB]) prior running the program.

On Debian Linux you may need to execute the following two commands to ensure all required supporting libraries are available in the system:

sudo apt-get install libglew1.10 libjpeg62-turbo libtiff5 libpng12-0 zlib1g liblapack3 libblas3
sudo apt-get install libwxgtk3.0-0 libfftw3-long3 libfftw3-single3 libfftw3-double3 f2c

(If any of the packages is already installed, the command will skip over it.)

Authors

The program and the llibrary are extending, and hence are heavily based on, the viewer3d project. The viewer4d has been developed in the Center for Biomedical Image Analysis, Faculty of Informatics, Masaryk University, Brno, Czech Republic, also by several people. The principal authors of the extension are Adriana Šmijáková and Vladimír Ulman. Contact Vladimír Ulman for more information about this project.
