public class SoROI extends SoNode
Region of Interest (subvolume) node. The ROI ("region of interest") node allows you to specify a sub-region of the volume that will be rendered. Voxels within the ROI are rendered; voxels outside the ROI are not rendered. This provides a simple and very efficient form of volume clipping (much more efficient than usingSoClipPlane
nodes).The
SoVolumeData
node on which the ROI will be applied can be specified withdataSetId
. When this field is set to 0, the lastSoVolumeData
node on state is used.In addition, for large volumes that cannot be fully loading into CPU and/or GPU memory,
SoROI
can improve both data loading performance and image quality. VolumeViz will always try to load the highest resolution data possible for the voxels inside the region defined by the ROI. VolumeViz is not required to load data in tiles that are completely outside the ROI. VolumeViz may load tiles outside the ROI if there is sufficient memory (this is useful in cases where the user can move or resize the ROI). But in general, for large volumes, usingSoROI
reduces the amount of data that must be loaded and increases image quality for the voxels inside the ROI.Note that the above discussion only applies in multi-resolution mode (the default). In fixed resolution mode (see
SoLDMResourceParameters.fixedResolution
), VolumeViz will try to load all the tiles in the volume at the specified resolution level regardless of theSoROI
settings.The ROI can be a simple box (default) or a complex shape defined by (up to) three box shapes (X, Y, and Z slabs) and logic flags that specify how the slabs are to be combined.
SoROI
is commonly used with an opaque color map to provide a "volume probe" in seismic data applications. However it is useful with any kind of volume data to limit the data displayed and to improve loading and image quality as discussed above.The
box
andsubVolume
fields are specified in voxel coordinates. The limits are included in the ROI. A value of 0,0,0 0,0,0 (min and max) in thesubVolume
field means that this field should be ignored. This is the default.This node acts on the rendering shape nodes of VolumeViz (
SoVolumeRender
,SoOrthoSlice
,SoObliqueSlice
,SoVolumeSkin
, etc.)To define a simple ROI, set the limits of the ROI in the
box
field (and do not set thesubVolume
field). The same result is obtained by setting thebox
andsubVolume
fields to the same value, but this is not necessary. But note that the default ROI box is not automatically the full volume. You must initialize the ROI box to something, for example the volume dimensions minus one.// Initialize ROI box to full volume SoVolumeData volData = new SoVolumeData(); . . . SoROIManip roiManip = new SoROIManip(); roiManip.box.setValue( new SbVec3i32(0, 0, 0), volData.data.getSize().minus( new SbVec3i32(1, 1, 1))); root.addChild( roiManip ); For a complex ROI, the region defined by the
SoROI
box
field always acts upon the region defined by theSoROI
subVolume
field, not the entire volume. For example, in EXCLUSION_BOX mode, the visible portion of the volume is thesubVolume
region minus thebox
region. You are allowed to set thebox
region larger than (or completely outside) thesubVolume
region, but only the intersection of the two regions is significant.You can also use the convenient manipulator class
SoROIManip
to allow your users to interactively move and resize the region of interest.The figures below show the
subVolume
field used to limit the visible portion of the volume (left) and the ROI used as an "exclusion box" to cut away part of the subvolume (right).Example: box
field used to limit visible portion of the volumeThe Crop Box and Cropping Process.
The crop box is defined by three sets of parallel planes that define three slabs:
- The xmin and xmax planes define the X slab.
- The ymin and ymax planes define the Y slab.
- The zmin and zmax planes define the Z slab.
After these three planes have been specified, cropping is done in four stages.
Stage 1 determines which voxels to include relative to one or more of the slabs. Classification can be enabled or disabled relative to the X slab, Y slab, or Z slab. This classification is performed three separate times, resulting in three terms: Term 0, Term 1, and Term 2. Each term has its own logic flags that enable the three slabs, independent of the other terms. The flags are as follows:
- Enable or disable classification relative to the X slab.
- Enable or disable classification relative to the Y slab.
- Enable or disable classification relative to the Z slab.
Stage 2 determines whether to invert the values obtained in Stage 1 so that the voxels outside a slab are selected. This determination is made for each of the terms (Term 0, Term 1, Term 2). As in Stage 1, each term has its own inversion flag and is independent of the other terms.
Stage 3 creates either the union or the intersection of Term 0, Term 1, and Term 2. This is specified using a logic flag.
Stage 4 determines whether to invert the result of Stage 3 and provides the final ROI. Again, the inversion (if any) is specified using a logic flag.
Example of Cropping Process
(Figures courtesy Real Time Visualization)
The following example will show you how the cropping process works.
Start with a volume that is 100x200x100 (x, y, z). The final cropped shape will be the union of a 20x200x20 bar and a 100x25x100 box.
Here is the initial volume:
Here is the bar:
The bar can be formed in Term 0 of Stage 1 by using the intersection of the X and Z slabs, each with min and max values set to 40 and 60, respectively.
Here is the box:
The box can be formed in Term 1 of Stage 1 by using just the Y slab, with min and max values set to 125 and 150.
Term 2 of Stage 1 can be set to be identical to Term 0 or Term 1, or it can be set to include no samples by setting no enable flags (no slabs selected, so entire volume is selected) and setting the invert flag of Stage 2 so that the entire volume is deselected. To get the union of these terms in Stage 3, OR_SELECT is set. That results in the desired cropping, so Stage 4, in which the results are inverted, is not used.
Here is the code to set the box dimensions and the logic flags:
SoROI myROI = new SoROI(); int xmin = 40; int xmax = 60; int ymin = 125; int ymax = 150; int zmin = 40; int zmax = 60; myROI.box.SetValue( xmin, ymin, zmin, xmax, ymax, zmax ); myROI.flags.setValue( SoROI.FlagsType.ENABLE_X0.getValue() | SoROI.FlagsType.ENABLE_Z0.getValue() | SoROI.FlagsType.ENABLE_Y1.getValue() | SoROI.FlagsType.INVERT_2.getValue() | SoROI.FlagsType.OR_SELECT.getValue() ); Additional Examples
Example 1: flags = SUB_VOLUME Alternate setting:flags = ENABLE_X0 | ENABLE_Y1 | ENABLE_Z2
Example 2: flags = FENCE Alternate setting:flags = ENABLE_X0 | ENABLE_Y1 | ENABLE_Z2 | OR_SELECT
Example 3: flags = FENCE Note that example 2 and 3 have the same flags set; but in example 2, xmin, ymin, and zmin values are set to zero. Setting its xmax, ymax, and zmax values to the maximum value produces a similar crop.
Example 4: flags = FENCE_INVERT Alternate setting:flags = ENABLE_X0 | ENABLE_Y1 | ENABLE_Z2 | OR_SELECT | INVERT_OUTPUT
Example 5: flags = CROSS Alternate setting:flags = ENABLE_X0 | ENABLE_Y0 | ENABLE_Y1 | ENABLE_Z1 | ENABLE_X2 | ENABLE_Z2 | OR_SELECT
Example 6: flags = CROSS_INVERT Alternate setting:flags = CROSS | INVERT_OUTPUT

Field Detail
-
dataSetId
public final SoSFInt32 dataSetId
Specifies whichSoVolumeData
node to use. This is useful when datasets of different dimensions are present in the scene graph. Please seeSoMultiDataSeparator
for more details.When set to 0, the last
SoVolumeData
node on state is used. Default is 0.- Since:
- Open Inventor 10.11.0
-
box
public final SoSFBox3i32 box
-
flags
public final SoSFBitMask<SoROI.FlagsType> flags
Specifies how the bounds of the box are used. Default is SUB_VOLUME. The region of interest is the box itself.
-
subVolume
public final SoSFBox3i32 subVolume
Specifies the bounds of the subvolume that will be rendered. By default, it is an empty box and has no effect. The subvolume is always a simple box.
-
relative
public final SoSFBool relative
Specifies whether the box bounds are relative to the subvolume or the full volume (i.e., are specified in absolute slice coordinates). true means that if the subvolume is non-empty, moving the subvolume through the volume also moves the ROI box through the volume. Default is false.
