摘要： A system comprising a scanner to scan an ear and a processor to receive, from the scanner, a non-manifold three-dimensional (3D) digital surface model (DSM) scan data representative of a non-manifold 3D surface model of the auditory canal and the concha of the ear. The 3D surface model is an outer boundary surface for an earpiece appliance. The processor determines an extrema boundary located at a free edge of the 3D surface model; recognizes anatomical features including a cymba concha and auditory canal peak; modifies the 3D surface model relative to the anatomical features by creating a base boundary plane for the appliance, offset some distance from the extrema boundary; creates a closed volume within and between the outer boundary surface, the extrema boundary and the base boundary plane to form a solid 3D earpiece appliance; and causes a computer-aided manufacturing device to manufacture the solid 3D earpiece appliance.

摘要： A system comprising a scanner to scan the airman or soldier (subject), a processor to receive, from the scanner, a non-manifold three-dimensional (3D) digital surface model (DSM) scan data representative of the subject, and a computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) device. The processor recognizes anatomical features on the 3D surface model including the cephalic (head) region of the scanned subject; stores each sub region defined by anatomical features as a non-manifold 3D surface model; creates a surface offset from the DSM sub region; creates a closed volume within and between the DSM sub region and the offset surface representative of a solid 3D pilot flight equipment; and causes a computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) device to manufacture the solid 3D pilot flight equipment.
