The typical use of this module is the creation of an animated fly-through of a structure such as the colon. With this module you can use interactively selected fiducial points as the control points for a 3D curve. This curve defines the flight path of the camera. The camera's speed and field of view can be controlled during playback.

Create a model
* Segment the target anatomy (colon, airways, etc.) using the Editor module or other segmentation tools
* Create a surface model using the Model Maker module
* Modify the generated model in the Models module: turn of Culling of Backface (to allow visualization of the inside of the surface)

Create a fly-through path
* Create a path model as a spline interpolation of a set of fiducial points.
* Pick the Camera to be modified by the path and the Fiducial List defining the control points.
* Clicking "Create path" will make a path model and enable the flythrough panel.

View the fly-through
* Turn off visibility of the fiducials in the Annotations module (so that they don't obstruct the view)
* You can manually scroll though the path with the Frame slider.
* The Play/Pause button toggles animated flythrough.
** The Frame Skip slider speeds up the animation by skipping points on the path.
** The Frame Delay slider slows down the animation by adding more time between frames.
* The View Angle provides is used to approximate the optics of an endoscopy system.
