Abstract: Disclosed are a scanner system and a method for recording surface geometry and surface color of an object where both surface geometry information and surface color information for a block of the image sensor pixels at least partly from one 2D image recorded by the color image sensor. A particular application is within dentistry, particularly for intraoral scanning.

Abstract: A 3D scanner for recording the 3D topography of an object, the 3D scanner includes an illumination unit configured for providing probe light for illuminating the object, where the probe light includes a pattern of light rays; an image sensor for acquiring one or more 2D images of light rays returning from the illuminated object; an optical system including an optical element arranged such that the patterned probe light passes through it when propagating towards the object from the illumination unit along an optical path; and a device for changing the configuration of the optical system between a first and a second configuration, where the change in configuration comprises a change in orientation of the optical element between a first orientation and a second orientation relative to the optical path of the probe light.

Abstract: A plurality of light sources are arranged with a light-guide structure such that light emitted by the sources propagates longitudinally through the light-guide structure. The light-guide structure scatters and/or redirects the emitted light and outputs the scattered and/or redirected light laterally. A controller is configured to dynamically correlate the light emitted from the plurality of light sources and to dynamically tune intensity of the light emitted from the plurality of light sources. The result is a dynamic light effect that appears to the observer as moving light.
