Intra oral imaging system and method is based on the conoscopic holography

摘要

A conoscopic holographic system and a method for imaging a scene characterized by a surface having a three-dimensional shape. The system utilizes an optical source, which illuminates the scene with substantially linear distributions of light, and independent register of a plurality of elementary conoscopic holograms in the image plane. Each elementary conoscopic hologram represents the imaging of a single emitting point of the illuminated scene. The optical source is translated relative to the scene to generate a sequence of optical holograms, and a weighted reconstruction of the holograms is performed, in a computer process, at a median plane to devise the three-dimensional shape of the imaged scene.
