Ipysurfer

This project enables interactive 3D visualization of human brain activity inside Jupyter Notebook. It can be regarded as an alternative to mayavi and PySurfer-based human brain visualization, built on top of ipyvolume and ipywidgets.

For a quick demonstration of ipysurfer, see this Binder demo.

Requirements

• bqplot
• ipyvolume
• Matplotlib

Installation

ipysurfer depends on the development branch of a few projects. To install, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/mne-tools/mne-gsoc2018-3d
   cd mne-gsoc2018-3d

2. Install the required dependencies in a new environment using "anaconda" and the provided environmnent.yml file.

   conda env create -f environment.yml

   Alternatively, inspect this file and install dependencies on your own. Note that some must be installed from a development branch of the package (ipyvolume).

3. Install ipysurfer:

   pip install -e.
