The cisst package is a collection of libraries designed to ease the development of computer assisted intervention systems. The Surgical Assistant Workstation (SAW) is a platform that combines robotics, stereo vision, and intraoperative imaging (e.g., ultrasound) to enhance a surgeon's capabilities. The SAW package therefore consists of implemented components (e.g., interfaces to many of the devices used for computer-integrated surgery) as well as reusable applications.
All software is available under an open source license, which can be found here. The source code can be obtained from github.com, https://github.com/jhu-cisst and https://github.com/jhu-saw. Most users should check out the master branch.
