[comp.graphics] HELP/source needed

patr@osiris.UUCP (Patrick Barta) (12/09/88)

	i'm a newcomer to computer graphics and i would like to generate some
images of 3 dimensional brain structures.  I have (several) segmentations
done, but I need some way to display them.  I've got a Vaxstation 3200 with
an 8 bit/pixel color monitor running Ultrix and X11.  Does anyone know of any
public domain source code that I could use to render these structures?
I don't care how efficient it is and any help would be appreciated, even if the
source would need to hacked to get it to run on my system.  (I realize that
I'll probably need to write the device-dependent stuff myself, but a package
that would do the shading and/or ray tracing would be helpful.)  I've heard
about a package called MOVIE.BYU but don't know if it is public domain and
didn't know where to call at BYU to get more information to find out whether
it's likely to be useful to me or not.  
	i'm just starting to read this newsgroup--sorry if this is a question
that's come up recently.
