    摘要: In embodiments set forth herein, an intraoral scanner comprises a body, and a probe at one end of the body, the probe comprising a scanner head. The intraoral scanner further comprises a wireless communication module disposed within the body, and one or more optical sensor to receive light that enters the scanner head and generate intraoral scan data based on the light, wherein the wireless communication module is to wirelessly send the intraoral scan data to a computing device. The intraoral scanner further comprises a primary power source disposed within the body, wherein the primary power source comprises at least one of a long distance wireless power transfer (LDWPT) receiver or a replaceable battery. The intraoral scanner further comprises a secondary power source disposed within the body, wherein the secondary power source comprises at least one of a rechargeable battery or a capacitor.
