3D Oral Scanner Screen Region Recording
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current methods for recording the scanning process of a three-dimensional oral scanner are burdensome on the processor and result in large video files, causing inconvenience in delivering the recorded data to dental laboratories or manufacturers, while also risking the omission of necessary information due to inappropriate screen region selection.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device with a processor, communication circuit, and display that allows users to selectively record a predetermined region of the screen displaying the scanning process, enabling efficient video image generation and reducing file size by configuring a screen region for recording based on user input.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the entire screen region is recorded to ensure complete capture of scanning process information, then the reliability of recorded information is improved, but the processor burden increases and video file size becomes large
Solution Approach 1:
The screen display is divided into multiple regions (first region for 3D image, second region for controls, third region for status). The system allows selective recording of specific regions based on user needs, enabling complete information capture when required while reducing processor burden by recording only necessary regions when appropriate.
Solution Approach 2:
The recording configuration is made dynamic and adaptable. Users can select different recording regions based on their specific needs, and the system adjusts the recording parameters accordingly. This dynamic approach allows the system to optimize between information completeness and processor burden reduction in real-time.
2Reliability
If the entire screen region is recorded to ensure complete capture of scanning process information, then the reliability of recorded information is improved, but the video file size increases causing delivery inconvenience
Solution Approach 1:
The screen is segmented into functional regions, allowing users to select only the necessary regions for recording. This segmentation enables significant reduction in video file size by excluding unnecessary regions while maintaining complete information capture for the selected regions.
Solution Approach 2:
Different regions of the screen have different recording qualities based on user needs. The system applies local quality control by recording high-quality detailed video only in regions that are actually needed for the scanning process, rather than uniformly recording the entire screen.
3Ease of operation
If a narrow screen region is recorded to reduce processor burden and file size, then the ease of operation is improved, but necessary information may be omitted
Solution Approach 1:
The screen is divided into clearly defined regions with specific functions. Users can easily select which regions to record based on their needs, making the operation convenient while ensuring that necessary information is not omitted by providing clear visual guidance on region boundaries and contents.
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides visual feedback by displaying region boundaries and recording status indicators. This feedback mechanism helps users understand what will be recorded and what will be excluded, enabling them to make informed decisions about region selection to avoid information loss.
4Adaptability or versatility
If screen recording is performed to document scanning process for dental laboratory, then the adaptability for different purposes is improved, but the processor burden and file size increase
Solution Approach 1:
The screen recording system is designed with multi-functionality to serve different purposes (dental laboratory documentation, manufacturer reference, quality control). By providing flexible region selection capabilities, the same system can adapt to various recording needs without requiring separate processing systems, thus managing processor burden while maintaining versatility.
