AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The patent describes an improved electronic loupe that solves common problems with traditional loupes. The new loupe is lightweight, easy to use, and provides greater magnification than optical lamps. It can be designed to meet specific objectives and can include features like adjustable brightness and a built-in light. Overall, the new electronic loupe offers an improved solution for those who need to see details more clearly in a convenient and efficient way.

Problems solved by technology

The key challenge for optical loupe is the higher magnification using optical lens system.
Higher magnification using optical lens means the combination of large size and multiple optical lens due to the limitation of physics.
The requirement for higher magnification results in heavier weight and larger in size and makes the usage of optical loupe difficult and inconvenient for better resolution.
This physical limitation is why current optical loupes have a common magnification range of 2 to 5 times. For higher magnification, the optical lens will be large, and the entire system is very heavy.
This is also inconvenient to many customers.

Abstract

An electronic loupe (400) features a view piece (401) mounted to a headpiece (405) by a linkage (406). A camera (402) and LED light (403) are mounted (404) in front of the view piece (401) to provide an image in the view piece (401) on displays (not shown) for the user. A control box (410) may be wired to the electronic loupe, or wirelessly connected, or the controls for the electronic loupe may reside on the view piece (401) and the headpiece (405). Other controls, such as a remote control or a foot pedal, are also disclosed.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCES TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims priority to U.S. filed provisional application No. 62 / 796,139, filed Jan. 24, 2019, and incorporates the same by reference herein in its entirety.TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to electronic loupes for use in medical, dental, veterinary, laboratory, industrial, and any fields that need magnifications for observed objects.BACKGROUND ART[0003]An optical loupe using magnifying lens or lens system is a common device worn by human in front of eyes to magnify the observed objects. The optical loupes are in various shapes and mechanical designs already in the market. The optical loupes have single configuration for one eye use and double configuration for both eyes. The optical loupes have been used in many fields including, not limited to, medical, dental, veterinary, manufacturing, inspections and many others. It is always desired by user for following features: high magnification, ...
