Scanning Rod Point Display for Real-Time Implant Position Feedback
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing dental scanning technologies fail to provide real-time feedback on the scanning process and the state of identification points, making it difficult for users to accurately determine the spatial position of an implant.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for displaying scanning data that identifies and displays identification points on a scanning rod based on their state information, using different display modes to indicate whether the points meet scanning requirements, such as number of scans, database matching, and spatial location within a scanning box.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If a rectangular cube scanning rod with a separate code is used for scanning, then the spatial position of an implant can be determined, but the scanning process and current scanning state of identification points are not perceived by the user
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements real-time feedback by displaying the scanning process and current scanning state of identification points on a screen during the scanning operation. This allows users to perceive the scanning progress and understand which areas have been scanned and which have not, thereby resolving the information loss without significantly increasing device complexity through the use of a display interface.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a display interface as an intermediary between the scanning rod and the user. This intermediary component translates the internal scanning state of the rod into visual information that the user can perceive, enabling the user to understand the scanning process without requiring direct interaction with the scanning rod's internal mechanisms.
2Measurement precision
If identification points are displayed with different display modes based on scanning state, then scanning accuracy is improved, but the display system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by using different display modes for different identification points based on their scanning state. Scanned identification points are displayed in one mode (e.g., green color) while unscanned or partially scanned points are displayed in another mode (e.g., red or yellow color). This localized differentiation improves scanning accuracy by highlighting specific areas without requiring complex display hardware for the entire system.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes color changes as a simple yet effective display mode to indicate the scanning state of different identification points. By changing the color of displayed points based on their scanning status, the system achieves high measurement precision through visual feedback while maintaining relatively simple display implementation through the use of color information.
3Ease of operation
If real-time display of scanning state is provided, then user understanding of scanning process is improved, but processing time and computational resources increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies partial action by displaying only the essential information about scanning state (such as which identification points have been scanned and their current status) rather than providing complete real-time data about every aspect of the scanning process. This selective display approach improves user understanding of the scanning process while minimizing the computational resources and processing time required for real-time feedback.
