This device, adopted by n5on Int, Inc., uses a laser triangulation method that inserts an optical probe into the patient's oral cavity and measures the distance between the optical probe and the tooth surface point by point. This type of distance measuring probe is also widely applied in industrial surveying technology. The laser is used to survey or measure point by point or scan along a line and determine the coordinates of the relative height of the scanned object along the scan line. Since a CCD scanning line sensor is usually used as an optical imager (pickup or receiver), 256 to 4.09
There is an image point raster of 6 image points.

A device called CERPC is used by Brandistini Instruments. Projecting a parallel grid composed of multiple rays or -1 rays onto a surface,
This is observed with a two-dimensional camera with parallax, and the relative height is calculated from the curvature of the light cutting line.

になる。An improved method of this method is known as the so-called phase shift method. This method uses interferometrically generated light gratings with sinusoidally brightness adjustment, in contrast to binary light sectioning methods. The object is imaged or recorded at multiple locations where the phases of this grating are located, resulting in a high density of height values. Furthermore, it becomes possible to mathematically eliminate the negative effects of unstable background brightness and linear fluctuations in contrast due to local fluctuations in reflection.

(a)レーザー三角測量法やレーザー移相法では干渉性
の光により斑点が生じてしまうので、高さの像がぼやけ
てしまい、分解能が非常に悪化する。(a) In the laser triangulation method and the laser phase shift method, speckles are generated due to coherent light, so the height image becomes blurred and the resolution becomes extremely poor.
(b)固定格子を有する光切断法又は移相法には大きな

しまう。このため、高さの飛びを再構成することができ
ない。(b) The optical cutting method or the phase shifting method with a fixed grating has the problem that the height is obscured by large jumps. When a large jump occurs, the beam of light is largely shifted, and the phase position of the sinusoidal grating is shifted by more than one grating. For this reason, it is not possible to reconstruct the jump in height.

This pattern is stored in a projection image storage device and displayed on a matrix light source through digital-analog intersection positions, with a high-resolution matrix light source projecting onto the surface to be surveyed with the aid of focusing optics, for three-dimensional tooth surveying. This is achieved by the oral cavity probe used. As matrix light source a video monitor screen is used, preferably a fine scanning line projection tube or a spatial light conditioner. Spatial light modulators are available as inexpensive LCD video monitor screens for small television receivers and can be easily integrated into oral probes as electronically controllable "transparencies."

A pattern is projected onto the surface of the tooth to be measured or surveyed. The thus marked tooth surface is transmitted by the second light guide 2 to the two-dimensional video camera 3. Two-dimensional video camera 3 transmits data to image evaluation computer 4 . The pattern projected onto the tooth surface is generated digitally by the computer 4 or another computer, stored in a projection image storage 5 and converted by a digital-to-analog converter into a video signal that controls an LCD video matrix 7. Ru. The LCD screen is illuminated with constant light by an illumination device 8. This constant light is adjusted point by point with high resolution and multiple gray steps. The adjusted light passes through the imaging optical element 6, enters an optical device such as an endoscope, and is projected onto the tooth surface.

される。FIG. 2 is an example of a series of projection patterns that cannot be obtained using a normal probe without changing the probe. First, an "all white" 1 is projected as the projection pattern, and the probe localization, sharpness settings, etc. can be adjusted without encountering any annoying lines on the monitor of the image processing device 10 (see Figure 1). Easily controlled.

など、光学装置全体の較正に必要なデータが得られる。Here, by purely evaluating the brightness, shadow areas that cannot be measured later in three-dimensional measurement are automatically recognized. The second projection pattern 2 is composed of marks, for example. Calibration data (image condition, distance to reference plane, etc.) is calculated from the mark distortion. By distorting the circular mark into an ellipse, data necessary for calibrating the entire optical device is obtained, such as image relationships and the spatial position of the background.

ので曖昧さは生じない。For example, pattern 3 is a coarse sinusoidal grating for implementing a weak resolution phase shift method. This pattern is imaged or received at three different phase positions 3aSbSc to form a rough image of the tooth height. Since the lattice constant is large, no ambiguity occurs.

既に刊行されているので、ここでは述べない。Since pattern 4aSbSc has a finer sine grid, it becomes possible to measure the height with high resolution, but it becomes ambiguous. This ambiguity can be removed by coarse survey 3. lastly,
The tooth quality can be visually confirmed by extracting a digitally stored tooth profile from an image or photo library, projecting it onto the tooth, and observing it on a video monitor (10 in Figure 1). . In some cases, choose a tooth model that is already available. Since the phase shifting method corresponds to the prior art and various publications have been published on the phase shifting method, there is no need to repeat the details of the phase shifting method here. Similarly, three-dimensional surveying methods such as trigonometry, photogrammetry, and encoded projection patterns are all already published as prior art and will not be discussed here.
