Seikowave unveils the world’s smallest intraoral dental scanner
07/26/12 07:04 PM
Seikowave, a leader in advanced 3D imaging technology, is proud to announce the patenting of the world’s smallest intraoral dental scanner. This groundbreaking innovation, designed to transform dental diagnostics and treatment planning, leverages cutting-edge 3D surface measurement technology to deliver unparalleled precision and efficiency in dental care.
The patented scanner features a compact surface measurement module that captures high-resolution 3D images of dental structures. At its core is a sophisticated optical system housed within a miniaturized casing, including a pattern-shifting device, a polarizing beam splitter, and a lens assembly. The device projects a multi-frequency light pattern onto the subject, while an image sensor captures scattered light reflections to construct detailed 3D models of teeth and oral structures.
Key features of the scanner include:
“This innovation represents a significant leap forward in dental imaging technology,” said Matt Bellis, CEO of Seikowave. “By miniaturizing our patented 3D surface measurement technology, we’ve created a tool that not only enhances diagnostic accuracy but also streamlines the workflow for dental professionals. We’re excited to bring this transformative solution to the dental industry.”
The scanner’s compact design and advanced imaging capabilities make it ideal for a wide range of dental applications, including orthodontics, restorative dentistry, and implantology. Its ability to quickly and accurately capture 3D images of dental structures will empower dentists to deliver more precise and personalized care.
Seikowave’s patented technology builds on the company’s expertise in 3D imaging, which has already made waves in industries such as oil and gas infrastructure inspection and underwater scanning. This latest innovation underscores Seikowave’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of 3D imaging and delivering solutions that address real-world challenges.
