About the Case Study _
Students bring a breath of fresh air to the workplace, and with them come new and innovative ideas. One such example is our intern Ester. She combined her work with a bachelor thesis entitled “3D Crystal Viewer”. It was a demanding assignment since she needed to study the basics of crystallography. She was tasked to create a 3D application which would visualize a unit cell with atoms in a way understandable for the crystallographers. The visualization should also allow the rendering of the crystallographic planes and directions for the given crystal.
The application is predominantly written in OpenGL, and during theyear, Ester showed significant progress in that area. Since the visualizationis part of the WPF application, she decided to use OpenTK to integrate OpenGL into the existing WPF application. This means that her work will not be forgotten. On the contrary, it will help many crystallographers around the world to visualize any given crystal. We were also thrilled that Ester got an “A” for the defense of her bachelor’s thesis at the Faculty of Informatics of Masaryk University.
