TESSY

Information Download

On this site you can find out everything you want and need to know about Tessy - a Macintosh program that allows you to produce your own Voronoi Diagrams and Delaunay Triangulations as well as export and import of generator points. For additional information and step-by-step instructions on how to transfer coordinates from NIH Image program into Tessy follow the second link.

  1. Experience live Delaunay Triangulation with Java!
    http://ltssg3.epfl.ch/~bossen/triangulator.html
    A simple JAVA site that lets you place your own points on surface and see Voronoi Diagrams and Delaunay Triangulations they make - good on the run
  2. Voronoi Diagram / Delaunay Triangulation
    http://simon.cs.cornell.edu/Info/People/chew/Delaunay.html
    Another JAVA powered site that lets you place points on surface and they observe either Voronoi Diagrams with the points you placed OR Delaunay Triangulations without the points (just the triangulations) - nice site, but a pitty that you have to switch between the two - also very simple
  3. VOROGlide
    http://www11.informatik.tu-muenchen.de/proj/anja/
    AWESOME! The best site out there by far! A JAVA powered site that once activated (button on the site) pops up a whole new window that provides an interface of a regular program. Allows to display either or both Voronoi D. and Delaunay T. as well as the Convex Hull. Also allows you to remove placed points as well as move them around and observe how moving a particular point affects surrounding Voronoi D. and Delaunay T. - awesome - this site gets two thumbs up, five stars and whatever else you can think of
  4. Delaunay Triangulation
    http://www3.pair.com/ericco/applet/TriangulationViewer.html
    A very interesting JAVA site that does not let you place your own points, but rather lets you observe what happens with different sets of points. THis site also lets you drag your mouse over the points and see different triangulations, diagrams , ovals and much more - intersting and helpful in some tasks - missing the ability to allow the user to place his/her own points
