Volocity is the realization of Improvision's objective to provide the scientist with an interactive volume visualization system that will run on a standard desktop computer.

Volume interactivity is the key to providing the user with an enhanced perception of depth and realism. Interactivity also allows the scientist to rapidly explore and understand large volumes of data.

The powerful and advanced technology developed exclusively by Improvision for rapid, interactive volume visualization of 3D and 4D volumes has received several awards for innovation and is the subject of worldwide patent applications.

Volocity is the first true color 4D rendering system designed for biomedical imaging. It uses new highly advanced algorithims to provide high-speed, easy to use, interactive rendering of time resolved color 3D volumes.

Volocity allows the user to visualize a 3D object and then observe and interact with it over time, for the first time providing scientists with a system to dynamically visualize both the structure and the purpose of biological structures.
