OpticalRevEng Dental
OpticalRevEng Dental is the sofware used to craete and edit the Range Images obtained with the Open Technologies Dental Scanners.
The application has been designed to allow the following operations:
- 3D optical scanning: The generation of "Range Images" of the opject inside the scanner
- Alignment of the range images: The group of functions that allows to integrate the scanning of different objects, or portions of objects, in order to place them accurately compared to each others
- Cleaning of the range images: Tools that allow to delete the undesired scattered points that can be present after the scanning
- Generation of triangle mesh: The group of procedures and algorithms that can transorm the range images produced from the scanner into triangle meshes that can be used with other CAD/CAM systems
- Editing the meshes: Tools for the elaboration of the meshes; (E.g. smoothing, hole filling, ...)
All the information needed are logically organized inside a Project. The scanning data addition or midification operations always take place inside a Project that can be saved or loaded from the disk.
The software support two different kinds of projects:
- Free Projects: Every element is indipendent from the other, all the logic is in the hand of the user
- Structured Projects: The element are related by each other based on a Job Definition made by the user or imported from another software
Many of the consideration in this manual are valid for both the project types.
