Connectome→Blender: an addon for importing neurological data

The Neurorama team is proud to announce the first release of its Blender addon Connectome→Blender, which allows users to import human connectome tract data exported from DSI Studio into Blender as curves. This process requires no paid software or neuroscience expertise whatsoever, making neuroscience visualizations made in Blander more accessible than ever!

This inaugural release is quite buggy. Known bugs, in order of most to least severe, are:

  • occasional mirrored tract plotting due to a data processing bug
  • only one connectome dataset can be loaded per file before an import error occurs, reported as AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'object'"
  • long hang times while curves are plotted (verbose progress is logged to Python console during import)

These will be ironed out in future releases, along with additional plotting features.

Enjoy your research!




Connectome→Blender update: version 0.0.3 released -- bugfix update

This update fixes all known bugs in Connectome→Blender:

  • connectome tract curves are now imported correctly without any distortions
  • plugin no longer stops user from importing multiple connectome datasets into a single file or Blender instance

Stay tuned for more features to come!
