The main feature is an algorithm that uses static repulsion (Jones, Horsfield, and Simmons 1999; Froeling et al. 2017) to generate homogeneously distributed gradient directions for DWI experiments which is also availible as a standalone tool which can be found here or here. It also provides functions to convert bval and bvec files to bmatrix and vice versa. Back››
