Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare the precision of threedimensional (3D) images acquired using iTero<SUP>®</SUP> (Align Technology Inc., San Jose, CA, USA) and Trios<SUP>®</SUP> (3Shape Dental Systems, Copenhagen, Denmark) digital intraoral scanners, and to evaluate the effects of the severity of tooth irregularities and scanning sequence on precision. Methods: Dental arch models were fabricated with differing degrees of tooth irregularity and divided into 2 groups based on scanning sequence. To assess their precision, images were superimposed and an optimized superimposition algorithm was employed to measure any 3D deviation. The t -test, paired t-test, and one-way ANOVA were performed (p < 0.05) for statistical analysis. Results: The iTero<SUP>®</SUP> and Trios<SUP>®</SUP> systems showed no statistically significant difference in precision among models with differing degrees of tooth irregularity. However, there were statistically significant differences in the precision of the 2 scanners when the starting points of scanning were different. The iTero<SUP>®</SUP> scanner (mean deviation, 29.84 ± 12.08 mm) proved to be less precise than the Trios<SUP>®</SUP> scanner (22.17 ± 4.47 mm). Conclusions: The precision of 3D images differed according to the degree of tooth irregularity, scanning sequence, and scanner type. However, from a clinical standpoint, both scanners were highly accurate regardless of the degree of tooth irregularity.

Objective: A recently developed facial scanning method uses three-dimensional (3D) surface imaging with a light-emitting diode. Such scanning enables surface data to be captured in high-resolution color and at relatively fast speeds. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy and precision of 3D images obtained using the Morpheus 3D® scanner (Morpheus Co., Seoul, Korea). Methods: The sample comprised 30 subjects aged 24?34 years (mean 29.0 ± 2.5 years). To test the correlation between direct and 3D image measurements, 21 landmarks were labeled on the face of each subject. Sixteen direct measurements were obtained twice using digital calipers; the same measurements were then made on two sets of 3D facial images. The mean values of measurements obtained from both methods were compared. To investigate the precision, a comparison was made between two sets of measurements taken with each method. Results: When comparing the variables from both methods, five of the 16 possible anthropometric variables were found to be significantly different. However, in 12 of the 16 cases, the mean difference was under 1 mm. The average value of the differences for all variables was 0.75 mm. Precision was high in both methods, with error magnitudes under 0.5 mm. Conclusions: 3D scanning images have high levels of precision and fairly good congruence with traditional anthropometry methods, with mean differences of less than 1 mm. 3D surface imaging using the Morpheus 3D<SUP>®</SUP> scanner is therefore a clinically acceptable method of recording facial integumental data.

In recent years, agricultural work is being automated and IT has been advanced in the field of agricultural machinery. The automatic steering apparatuses using GNSS and robot tractors are being developed. However, accurate GNSS is expensive and is difficult to acquire field conditions numerically. In this research, we developed a guidance system that acquires information on ridge line to extracts the target route of the vehicle using an inexpensive three-dimensional laser scanner compared to GNSS as a fundamental research of autonomous vehicle. In field experiments, a three-dimensional laser scanner with a depression angle was installed in front of the tractor, and the tractor was driven so as not to collapse the ridge installed in the field, and distance measurement data was acquired. By using the acquired distance measurement data, vertexes of the ridge were detected by self-made program, and approximate lines were obtained from these points to be the target trajectory. As a result, it was possible to obtain the target trajectory with sufficient accuracy to control the autonomous tractor.

PURPOSE. To evaluate the reproducibility of scan-based abutments using a blue light model scanner. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A wax cast abutment die was fabricated, and a silicone impression was prepared using a silicone material. Nine study dies were constructed using the prepared duplicable silicone, and the first was used as a reference. These dies were classified into three groups and scanned using a blue light model scanner. The first three-dimensional (3D) data set was obtained by scanning eight dies separately in the first group. The second 3D data set was acquired when four dies were placed together in the scanner and scanned twice in the second group. Finally, the third 3D data set was obtained when eight dies were placed together in the scanner and scanned once. These data were then used to define the data value using third-dimension software. All the data were then analyzed using the non-parametric Kruskal–Wallis H test (α=.05) and the posthoc Mann-Whitney U-test with Bonferroni’s correction (α=.017). RESULTS. The means and standard deviations of the eight dies together were larger than those of the four dies together and of the individual die. Moreover, significant differences were observed among the three groups (P<.05). CONCLUSION. With larger numbers of abutments scanned together, the scan becomes more inaccurate and loses reproducibility. Therefore, scans of smaller numbers of abutments are recommended to ensure better results.

And the depth value of the face is extracting using Point Signature method. The extracted data as high-dimensional data may cause problems in accompany the training and recognition. so use dimension reduction data using PCA algorithm. accompany parameter optimization using optimization algorithm for effective training. Each recognition performance confirm using PSO, DE, GA algorithm

The aim of this study was to compare the morphological characteristics of two types of stainless steel permanent molar crowns using three-dimensional scanners and the morphological changes of these crowns after crimping. Two types of stainless steel permanent molar crowns, PO-96 and PERMACROWN were scanned using three-dimensional scanner. Crown size, crown index (ratio of buccolingual diameter to mesiodistal diameter at height of contour), cervical convergency of crown were measured. Stainless steel crowns were crimped and re-scanned with three-dimensional scanner. Morphological changes of stainless steel permanent molar crowns were analyzed. As for the crown index, maxillary PERMACROWN was larger buccolingually and smaller mesiodistally than maxillary PO-96 and mandibular PERMACROWN was smaller buccolingually and larger mesiodistally than mandibular PO-96. Maxillary PO-96 was more convergent to cervical mesiodistally than maxillary PERMACROWN and mandibular PO-96 was more convergent to the cervical mesiodistally, buccolingually than mandibular PERMACROWN. Both types of stainless steel permanent molar crowns showed reduction of cervical circumference after crimping. Two products were morphologically different in crown size, shape and cervical convergence. Although both types of stainless steel permanent molar crowns are pre-contoured type, additional crimping is needed to achieve better marginal adaptation.

최적 pRBFNNs 패턴분류기 기반 3차원 스캐너를 이용한 얼굴인식 알고리즘 설계

마창민(Chang-Min Ma),유성훈(Sung-Hoon Yoo),오성권(Sung-Kwun Oh) 한국지능시스템학회 2012 한국지능시스템학회논문지 Vol.22 No.6

본 논문에서는 최적 pRBFNNs 패턴분류기 기반 3차원 스캐너를 이용한 얼굴인식 알고리즘을 설계한다. 일반적으로 2차원 영상을 이용한 얼굴인식 시스템은 사진의 명암도를 이용하여 얼굴의 특징을 추출하게 된다. 그렇기 때문에 빛이나 조명, 또는 얼굴 포즈와 같은 환경 변화들은 시스템의 성능을 저하시킨다. 따라서 본 논문에서 제안된 얼굴인식 알고리즘은 2차원 얼굴인식 시스템의 한계를 극복하기 위하여 3차원 스캐너를 사용하여 설계한다. 먼저 3차원 스캐너를 이용하여 얼굴 형상을 스캔하고 스캔된 얼굴 형상은 포즈 보상 과정을 통하여 정면으로 변환된다. 그 후에 Point Signature 기법을 사용하여 얼굴의 깊이 정보를 추출하고 마지막으로 고차원 패턴인식 문제에 대한 해결을 위하여 최적화된 pRBFNNs (Polynomial-based Radial Basis Function Neural Networks) 모델을 사용하여 인식성능을 확인한다. In this paper, Face recognition algorithm is designed based on optimized pRBFNNs pattern classifier using three-dimensional scanner. Generally two-dimensional image-based face recognition system enables us to extract the facial features using gray-level of images. The environmental variation parameters such as natural sunlight, artificial light and face pose lead to the deterioration of the performance of the system. In this paper, the proposed face recognition algorithm is designed by using three-dimensional scanner to overcome the drawback of two-dimensional face recognition system. First face shape is scanned using three-dimensional scanner and then the pose of scanned face is converted to front image through pose compensation process. Secondly, data with face depth is extracted using point signature method. Finally, the recognition performance is confirmed by using the optimized pRBFNNs for solving high-dimensional pattern recognition problems.

Three-dimensional changes in lip vermilion morphology of adult female patients after extraction and non-extraction orthodontic treatment

Zhi-Yu Liu,Jie Yu,Fan-Fan Dai,Ruo-Ping Jiang,Tian-Min Xu 대한치과교정학회 2019 대한치과교정학회지 Vol.49 No.4

Objective: To investigate the three-dimensional lip vermilion changes after extraction and non-extraction orthodontic treatment in female adult patients and explore the correlation between lip vermilion changes and incisor changes. Methods: Forty-seven young female adult patients were enrolled in this study (skeletal Class III patients were excluded), including 34 lip-protruding patients treated by extraction of four first premolars (18 patients requiring mini-implants for maximum anchorage control and 16 patients without mini-implants) and 13 patients requiring non-extraction treatment. Nine angles, seven distances, and the surface area of the lip vermilion were measured by using pre- and posttreatment three-dimensional facial scans. Linear and angular measurements of incisors were performed on lateral cephalograms. Results: There were no significant changes in the vermilion measurements in the non-extraction group. The vermilion angle, vermilion height, central bow angle, height/width ratio, and vermilion surface area decreased significantly after the orthodontic treatment in the extraction groups, but the upper/lower vermilion proportion remained unchanged. Significant correlations were found between the changes in incisor position and those in vermilion angles, vermilion height, and surface area. Conclusions: Extraction of the four first premolars probably produced an aesthetic improvement in lip vermilion morphology. However, the upper/ lower vermilion proportion remained unchanged. The variations in the vermilion were closely related to incisor changes, especially the upper incisor inclination changes.
