  • Patent number: 9773312
    Abstract: A method of registering a camera of a surgical navigation system for an augmented reality which realizes an augmented reality with lowered error range is disclosed. The method of registering the camera of the surgical navigation system for the augmented reality enables single person to do the work by calculating and adjusting the coordinate of the optical center of the camera by moving the optical tracker, the camera, or the pattern board with a second marker attached on the pattern board, not manually attached on the pattern board. And, there is an effect of improving accuracy and safety of a surgery by realizing an augmented reality without generating an accumulated error by the second marker, since the spatial coordinate of the second marker attached on the pattern board maintains uniform.

  • Patent number: 9717480
    Abstract: In order to verify a surgical operation image matching, a model of a target is manufactured. Then, a reference body is attached to the model. Then, three-dimensional reference data regarding to the model is obtained. Then, grid patterned light is emitted onto the model to obtain reflection image. Then, three-dimensional shape is measured from the reflection image, and measurement image is obtained from the three-dimensional shape. Then, the measurement image and previously obtained three-dimensional reference data are matched. Then, reference position of the target in the three-dimensional reference data is compared with estimated position of the target, which is estimated by the reference body in the measurement image. Therefore, the matching of the surgical operation can be verified.
