AUGMENTED REALITY ENHANCEMENTS FOR DENTAL PRACTITIONERS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/112273
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A system (100) comprises a scanner (180), an augmented reality (AR) display (150) and a computing device (105). The scanner (180) generates intraoral images (163) of a dental arch and the AR display generates additional image data (162) representative of a view from a wearer of the AR display (150). The computing device (105) receives the intraoral images (163) from the intraoral scanner (180), generates a virtual three-dimensional model of at least a portion of the dental arch from the intraoral images (163), receives the additional image data (162) from the AR display, determines, from the additional image data (162), a region of the view that is outside of the dental arch, generates a visual overlay (164) comprising the virtual three-dimensional model, and sends the visual overlay (164) to the AR display (150). The AR display (150) displays the visual overlay (164) such that the virtual three-dimensional model is shown in the region of the view that is outside of the dental arch.
