Beta Build - v0.1.0

[WYVERN2742]

This is a beta build of WebCT - Bugs are to be expected

🎉 This is the first bundled build of WebCT for windows!

WebCT is an all-in-one Simulation and Reconstruction toolkit for scan planning and training, with a focus on usability to those without expert XCT knowledge.

This version includes:

• X-Ray Settings for Tube and Synchrotron Sources.
• Detector Settings with Scintillator and PSF.
• Custom sample support with STL upload, and a material library supporting custom libraries
• Capture settings with CIL intergration and 3D Scene previews
• Full reconstruction support using CIL's FDK,FBP, and iterative methods (with a ton of options!)
• Data downloading in TIFF, JPEG, and ZIP formats
• Configuration Exporting / Importing for saving and sharing work

If you're new to the project, take a look at the homepage to learn more!

How to Use

1. Simply download the zip file in the link below; extract the webct folder, and double-click the WebCT.exe (blue icon) to launch!

Roadmap to v1.0.0

v1.0.0 is not that far away; the main component left is bugfixes (such as those listed above), better error notifications, and informative user input validation. This is alongside the push to publication.

Please test this build and tell me of any bugs, you find or features you'd like to see!
