چکیده
The MxR Lab at the University of Southern California explores techniques and technologies to improve the fluency of humancomputer interactions and create engaging and effective synthetic experiences. With a research facility at the Institute for Creative Technologies as well as the satellite MxR Studio at the School of Cinematic Arts, this unique environment facilitates crossdisciplinary teams from computer science, engineering, communications, and cinema. The MxR Lab philosophy begins with rapid prototyping and playful exploration that progressively evolves to more refined development pipelines, formal research studies, and eventual dissemination through academic papers and open-source initiatives. We also sometimes engage in large-scale Nerf battles.

Introduction: Ophthalmic plaque radiotherapy using I-125 radioactive seeds in removable episcleral plaques is often used in management of ophthalmic tumors. Radioactive seeds are fixed in a gold bowl-shaped plaque and the plaque is sutured to the scleral surface corresponding to the base of the intraocular tumor. This treatment allows for a localized radiation dose delivery to the tumor with a ...
