International Classification:

A61C 300

US Classification:

433 29, 600112

Abstract:

A dental camera is provided which is capable of operating in a wireless mode and a wired mode. A handpiece includes circuitry for generating a signal representing a video image and a first connector. A wireless adaptor module includes a power supply for supplying power to the handpiece, a transmitter for transmitting the signal representing a video image, and a second connector that mates with the first connector when the dental camera is being operated in the wireless mode. A cable has a third connector that mates with the first connector when the dental camera is being operated in the wired mode. With this system, clinical flexibility is afforded to a dental practitioner.

International Classification:

A61C003/00

US Classification:

433 29, 600173, 396322, 396323

Abstract:

A dental camera is provided having multiple lenses. The dental camera has at least a first lens for use in an intra-oral mode, and at least a second lens for use in an extra-oral mode.

Valeriy Armencha - White Plains NY, US

Assignee:

Schick Technologies, Inc. - Long Island City NY

International Classification:

G01T001/24

US Classification:

25037008

Abstract:

An electronic image sensor includes a first subsystem that has a radiation sensitive sensor array that captures an image upon the presence of incident radiation, a second subsystem that provides signals to control the reading out of data from the sensor array; and a third subsystem that provides electrical power to the first and second subsystems. A fourth subsystem has a controller that provides control signals to the third subsystem, to selectively control the provision of electrical power to the first subsystem and the second subsystem.

Assignee:

Schick Technologies, Inc. - Long Island City NY

International Classification:

H05G 1/64

US Classification:

378 988, 378191, 25037009

Abstract:

A system for capturing multiple intraoral images includes an intraoral sensor. The sensor includes a sensor array, a transmitter and a power source that provides power to the sensor array and the transmitter. The sensor is configured to be inserted inside a patient's oral cavity, capture an image upon the presence of incident radiation and transmit from within the oral cavity via a wireless link electrical signals representing the image. A base station positioned outside the oral cavity is configured to receive the electrical signals transmitted from the sensor. The sensor is capable of capturing transmitting to the base station electrical signals representing multiple intraoral images without requiring that the sensor be removed from the patient's oral cavity.

US Classification:

455255, 4551642, 4551821, 4551922, 4552771

Abstract:

An automatic frequency tuning (AFT) system which can effect immediate and accurate automatic frequency tuning of the local oscillator (LO) of a receiver, in order to achieve a stable intermediate frequency (IF) signal while reducing the power consumption and the cost of the system. In the automatic frequency tuning (AFT) system, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) converts the intermediate frequency (IF) to a digital value which is sent to a microcontroller. A signal sent from the microcontroller accurately and automatically tunes the local oscillator (LO).

International Classification:

G01T 1/20

US Classification:

25037011, 25037009, 378 988

Abstract:

An intraoral sensor includes a radiation sensitive sensor array, an event detection circuit, and a transmitter. The radiation sensitive sensor array includes a scintillator which converts x-rays into visible light radiation, and a plurality of pixels sensitive to visible light radiation to capture an image upon the presence of incident radiation. The event detection circuit includes a current sensing device and is configured to generate a triggering signal indicating the presence of radiation incident on the sensor array based upon the amount of electrical current drawn by the sensor array. The transmitter is adapted to transmit via a wireless link signals representing an image captured by the sensor array.
