    Abstract: An imaging system includes an image sensing unit and a processing unit. The image sensing unit captures a plurality of images of an object, wherein each of the images includes a plurality of pixels. The processing unit obtains a plurality of sets of image data according to the images, wherein each set of image data includes a plurality of characteristic values. The processing unit calculates a plurality of difference parameters of the characteristic values of every two sets of image data. The processing unit accumulates the difference parameters within a predetermined time period to obtain a plurality of accumulated difference parameters corresponding to the pixels. The processing unit determines a plurality of weighting values corresponding to the pixels according to the accumulated difference parameters. The processing unit performs an image processing process according to the sets of image data and the weighting values.

    Abstract: An intraoral scanner includes an image sensor, a projection module, a motion sensor, a memory unit and a processor. The motion sensor senses three motion variations corresponding to three axes according to a motion state of the intraoral scanner. The memory unit stores three first variation thresholds corresponding to the three axes. The processor determines whether the three motion variations are smaller than or equal to the three first variation thresholds, respectively. When the processor determines that at least one of the three motion variations is smaller than or equal to the three first variation thresholds, the processor enables the image sensor and the projection module. When the processor determines that all of the three motion variations are larger than the three first variation thresholds, the processor disables at least one of the image sensor and the projection module.

    Abstract: A barcode decoding method includes steps of analyzing a relative relationship between at least two characteristic points of a gray level distribution of a target scanning line of a target barcode to obtain at least one reference characteristic parameter; when determining a current distance between a barcode reader and the target barcode being a relatively long distance, dividing the gray level distribution into at least one bar area and at least one space area; setting a gray level region and locating at least one peak point and/or at least one valley point located within the gray level region from the gray level distribution; when the peak point is located within the bar area, interpolating a space corresponding to the peak point into the bar area; and when the valley point is located within the space area, interpolating a bar corresponding to the valley point into the space area.

    Abstract: An intraoral scanning system includes a motion sensing unit, an image sensing unit, a storage unit and a processing unit. The processing unit classifies first position information and second position information obtained by the motion sensing unit and the image sensing unit in an initial scanning process into first groups and second groups, wherein the first position information and the second position information are stored in the storage unit. The processing unit selectively uses the first groups or the second groups to perform comparison in a re-scanning process, so as to position an incomplete area in a model.
