Publication number: 20260053602Abstract: A method for visualizing a dental condition, including: projecting a color-coded pattern type using an intraoral scanner; providing a number of projection images of the dental condition; detecting one or more anatomical features in each of the projection images; —removing color-coded pattern information from at least one of the projection images; rendering, via machine learning, color information to the one or more anatomical features in the projection images to generate corresponding at least partially artificially colorized plurality of projection images, The pattern information is removed through the rendering. A system, an intraoral scanner, software product and a storage medium are disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2023Publication date: February 26, 2026Applicant: DENTSPLY SIRONA Inc.Inventors: Anders ADAMSON, Susanne MAUR, Marcel MEYER, Oliver WIRJADI

Patent number: 11840052Abstract: A method for producing a composite component including a bottom layer, cover layer and honeycomb structure, including applying the honeycomb structure to the bottom layer wherein honeycomb chambers are formed. Honeycomb chambers are filled in a reinforcement region with a granular material and granular material is removed from other honeycomb chambers wherein each honeycomb chamber is filled up to a granular-material filling height and honeycomb chambers outside the reinforcement region are free of granular material. The cover layer is applied to the honeycomb structure wherein the honeycomb chambers are closed. The composite component is heated so the granular material in the honeycomb chambers expands to fill it with granular material and the cover layer, the bottom layer, the honeycomb structure and the expanded granular material harden, the density of the expanded granular material in the honeycomb chambers filled with granular material being dependent on the granular-material filling height.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 2022Date of Patent: December 12, 2023Assignee: Airbus Operations GmbHInventors: Jürgen Langediers, Berend Schoke, Marcel Meyer

Patent number: 11291404Abstract: A method, system and computer readable storage media for defects in images during three-dimensional measurement of teeth. An operator may use a dental camera to scan teeth and a trained deep neural network may automatically detect portions of the input images having defects and generate output information regarding those defects for corrective measures to be taken.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2019Date of Patent: April 5, 2022Assignee: DENTSPLY SIRONA INC.Inventors: Ruwen Schnabel, Sascha Schneider, Anders Adamson, Marcel Meyer

Patent number: 11292130Abstract: Various embodiments relate to a method for motion simulation for a manipulator, such as an NC-controlled manipulator, in a machining environment, wherein the manipulator is moved in an operating mode by a control apparatus and the machining environment is at least partly mapped in an environment model and wherein the method comprises computation of a trajectory plan by the control apparatus from a setpoint movement of the manipulator starting from an initial situation and based on a kinematic model of the manipulator, performance of a kinematic collision check based on the trajectory plan, the kinematic model and the environment model, and production of a prediction result based on the kinematic collision check. The method is characterized in that the initial situation corresponds to the current manipulator state. Further, some embodiments relate to a corresponding computer program with program code and to a corresponding system for motion simulation for a manipulator.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2015Date of Patent: April 5, 2022Assignee: Broetje-Automation GmbHInventors: Dirk Eickhorst, Marcel Meyer
