MIP through cortex #7

Open alexhuth opened 10 years ago

It would be great to have the ability to see maximum intensity projections through the cortex, both in WebGL and quickflat.

how would MIP work for a flatmap?

alexhuth commented 6 years ago

the current projection method(s) take an average over many samples taken through cortex. iirc the idea here was to take the max instead. i don't really remember wtf i was thinking about 5 years ago tho. this is maybe related to the stuff @jamesgao implemented (but is currently disabled) that did "halo" rendering of cortex in 3D.

The underlying issue here is that our visualization techniques are not well-suited to high-resolution data that might have differences across cortical layers.

Ohh duh that makes sense. That could potentially be quite useful!
