Abstract: A hand-held intraoral scanner apparatus includes a handle, a scanner shaft and a head unit, wherein the head unit is arranged at an end of the scanner shaft and the head unit includes at least one sensor. The hand-held intraoral scanner apparatus further includes a processing unit, a moving arrangement and at least one motor. The processing unit is electrically interconnected to the at least one motor, the moving arrangement and the at least one sensor, a first end of the moving arrangement is interconnected to the head unit, and a second end of the moving arrangement is interconnected to the at least one motor. The processing unit is configured to move the head unit via the at least one motor and the moving arrangement, wherein the head unit is configured to move around at least one of two rotation axes. The two rotation axes extend perpendicular to each other.
