An additional member was added to the Vinyl series in 2022, the Vinyl UXD. Two high-resolution cameras and an advanced 3D sensor contribute to optimal data acquisition. The user has the option to choose between four modes, which allows the number of cameras as well as their resolution to be defined. This offers the great advantage of creating a high-resolution data set with full scan coverage or a reduced data set to save time, depending on what is required.
The UX module, consisting of two additional cameras and a projector, provides a new level of user experience. To select a workflow element or to start the scan, icons are projected onto the system plate and can be activated by hand gestures, almost autonomously from the PC.
The user can freely determine the scanning sequence as accustomed: upper jaw, lower jaw, articulator or other objects can be inserted depending on the selection. By monitoring the interior space, the Vinyl UXD employs AI-controlled Z-axis positioning to automatically align objects in height, thus guaranteeing the best possible scanning results.
Stumps to be exposed with secondDie and singleDie, are illuminated by the projector on the model inside the device. The model and object holder can therefore remain in the scanner, eliminating the timeconsuming process of checking which teeth need to be removed. In the 2D scan, the illuminations display the correct color indication of the reconstruction types from exocad DentalCAD®. For other work processes, assistances are also projected onto the system or universal plate. The incorrect insertion of articulators or impressions can thus be ruled out.
