A three-dimensional scanner according to the present invention comprises: a camera arranged to receive incident light; an optical projector which is arranged on one side of the camera and irradiates light to an object; and a polarization filter which is spaced a certain set distance from the front surface of the camera, wherein the polarization filter is formed to be inclined by a certain set angle with respect to a plane that is perpendicular to an optical path of the light irradiated from the optical projector, so that at least some of the light irradiated from the optical projector passes through the polarization filter and the remaining light is reflected by the surface of the polarization filter and proceeds to outside of the lens of the camera.

Three-dimensional scanner

The present invention relates to a three-dimensional intraoral scanner specifically comprising: a case which can be inserted into and withdrawn from the oral cavity, and has an opening portion which is open to allow the form of the inside of the oral cavity (hereinafter, referred to as an 'image') to be incident into the case in the form of light via an end portion thereof; at least one camera which is arranged inside the case to transmit the light incident via the opening portion of the case; a light projector which is arranged on one side of the at least one camera and emits light into the oral cavity via the opening portion; and a single polarized filter which positioned between the at least one camera and the opening portion at a position spaced a set distance (d) from the front end of the at least one camera. Thus, the present invention provides the advantages of making it possible to manufacture a product having a slim size and improve the reliability with which an object to be measured can be measured.

Three-dimensional intraoral scanner

A structured light projection optical system for obtaining 3D data of an object surface includes a structured light projection optical part configured to project a plurality of patterns onto an object or a screen, and an imaging optical part configured to obtain 3D data by photographing the patterns being projected from the structured light projection optical part. The structured light projection optical part includes a plurality of light sources, and a plurality of pattern masks. As the plurality of light sources are turned on and off, the pattern mask matches any one of the plurality of light sources illuminating a light, and the plurality of patterns are projected on the object or the screen by the pattern mask. Accordingly, various patterns can be effectively projected, real-time measurement can be easily performed through a quick pattern change, and the accurate 3D data can be obtained.
