  • Patent number: 10808063
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a photopolymer composition and the applications thereof. The photopolymer composition comprises: 5 weight percent to 15 weight percent of gelatin methacrylate (GelMA), 0.1 weight percent to 5 weight percent of silanized biologically active additive, 0.1 weight percent to 5 weight percent of photoinitiator, and 75 weight percent to 95 weight percent of a solvent. Compared to a conventional hydrogel, the hydrogel prepared from the photopolymer composition of the present disclosure has improved compressive strength, mechanical strength and stability. Accordingly, the hydrogel is applicable to biomedical research and tissue repair.

  • Patent number: 10751152
    Abstract: In this invention, a high-accuracy jaw motion tracking system and method using the same are disclosed. The jaw motion tracking system of the invention mainly comprises an eyewear facebow static positioning device, a lower jaw dynamic tracking device and a stereo-vision charge-coupled device (CCD) and can provide information regarding the locations and relative movement of lower and upper jaws. The eyewear facebow static positioning device has several passive and active reflective markers. The lower jaw dynamic tracking device equips with a plural of lightweight light emitting devices. Using OpenCV-based self-developed algorithm and post-iterative compensator, the disclosed system can record the dynamical jaw movement with a high accuracy. The disclosed jaw motion tracking system and related method have minimal occlusal disturbance and provide smooth motion-tracking performance. The disclosed system can be used in clinical dentistry.
