Integrate VTK Visualization into Taipy as an Extension

[FlorianJacta]

Description:

VTK (Visualization Toolkit) provides robust 3D visualization capabilities widely used in domains like medical imaging, computational fluid dynamics, and scientific data visualization. Integrating similar functionality directly into Taipy as an optional extension would greatly expand Taipy’s visualization repertoire, enabling users to build rich 3D interactive graphics within the Taipy environment.

Proposed Solution:

• Create a Taipy extension or component wrapper that can be embeded directly within Taipy pages.
• Provide a straightforward API for developers to:
  • Load 3D datasets.
  • Interactively manipulate views (e.g., rotate, zoom).
  • Apply filters, color maps, and advanced rendering options.
• Support bidirectional communication between the visualization component and Taipy states/variables, similar to how Taipy integrates with other components.

Example Use Case: A medical researcher might want to visualize MRI scans in 3D, slice through volumetric data, or apply custom segmentations. An engineer might want to display complex CFD simulations, adjusting parameters on the fly and seeing updated 3D renderings without leaving the Taipy interface.

Acceptance Criteria

• If applicable, a new demo code is provided to show the new feature in action.
• Integration tests exhibiting how the functionality works are added.
• Any new code is covered by a unit tested.
• Check code coverage is at least 90%.
• Related issue(s) in taipy-doc are created for documentation and Release Notes are updated.

Code of Conduct

• I have checked the existing issues.
• I am willing to work on this issue (optional)
