Wide-band polarization compound-eye camera for depth decomposition imaging of biological body
Details
It is inevitable to maintain healthiness of oral environment for that of the whole body. To observe the condition of gums, a digital dental mirror, which can measure three-dimensional shape, oxygen saturation map, scattering map, glycogen map, and so on from a single compound-eye image, is developed. The dental mirror is based on a 3×3-eye compact compound-eye called TOMBO (thin observation module by bound optics), and is equipped with visible and near-infrared illumination, band-pass, and polarization filters. Three-dimensional shape is measured with the multi-baseline stereo method.
