Three-Dimensional Reproducibility of the Soft Tissue Landmarks Taken by Structured-Light Facial Scanner in Accordance with the Head Position Change

The aim of this study was to evaluate the three-dimensional reproducibility of the structured-light facial scanner according to the head position change. A mannequin head was used and angle of the mannequin’s axis-orbital plane to the true horizontal plane was adjusted to +10, +5, 0, −5, and −10°. F...

description The aim of this study was to evaluate the three-dimensional reproducibility of the structured-light facial scanner according to the head position change. A mannequin head was used and angle of the mannequin’s axis-orbital plane to the true horizontal plane was adjusted to +10, +5, 0, −5, and −10°. Facial scanning was conducted 30 times, respectively, and 150 3D images were obtained. Reoriented landmarks of each group were compared and analyzed. Reproducibility decreased as the distance from the facial center increased. Additionally, the landmarks below showed lower reproducibility and higher dispersion than landmarks above. These differences occurred mainly in the anteroposterior direction as opposed to other directions. Positive inclination of the head position showed superior reproducibility compared to a negative inclination. This study showed that reproducibility of a structured-light scanner could be varied depending on the head position. Inaccuracies of landmarks in the anteroposterior direction are greater than in other directions. This means that evaluations of the profile using a structured-light scanner should be made carefully. Therefore, the proper head position should be set to ensure the accuracy of the image.
