SOFTWARE ART

Drs. Richard van Balen
SOFTWARE SCIENTIST

Richard van Balen was described by his computer science professor at the University of Amsterdam (UvA) as the most talented software designer he had ever met.

In addition to Scientific Software Engineer, he is also a medical Biologist with  specialisations in Neurology, Quantitative Pathology and Medical Informatics.

With his artistic, almost hypnotic, mobile 3D app MagicArt Relax he will try to help the world with stress reduction ( Investor / Marketeer wanted!).

In the article you find a report with various videos  about the MagicArt Relax app and the OpenGL based OGL GUI Window System, with incredibly fast 2D / 3D image manipulation and display.

​​IMAGING SOFTWARE VISIONARY

​​​SCIL-IMAGE
Imaging Application Framework

As biology student starting his major in Medical Informatics at the Free University of Amsterdam, Richard van Balen, was dissatisfied with the way in which image processing development was handled differently everywhere. As a better alternative
he developed SCIL, a C-interpreter-based, domain-independent interactive development environment.

The implementation of his vision, resulting in the revolutionary interactive image processing environment SCILIMAGE, changed everything and became the industry standard in the Netherlands.

He then set about simplifying the unnecessarily complicated development of MsWindows GUI applications by developing the versatile component based Imaging Application Framework.

In the article a report and videos about SCILIMAGE and the  Imaging Application Framework.

Fluid GUI by Drs. R. van Balen

​In the video above you can see how suitable OGL GUI is for developing visually impressive applications.

It shows the Similar Images & Concept Browser, which you can use to search for visually similar images or specific image concepts in an extensive image archive.

Please note the extremely fluid Graphical User Interface (Fluid GUI), a concept that Apple popularised with the iPhone  in 2007.​​
