INTRAORAL SENSOR
The Intraoral dental digital imaging sensor New IDA uses a sensor that employs
the associated technologies from CMOS (
Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor
),
protective optical
fiber and scintillator. This sensor was developed to obtain a high-
quality x-ray image from the human arch and its structures. The acquisition process is
made by positioning the sensor inside the mouth, behind the structure you want to
perform the exam. The structure must be exposed to an x-ray dose using an external
source. Once exposed, the sensor performs a conversion of the x-ray photons into a
digital sign and transfers it to a computer through USB 2.0 connection (
Universal Serial
Bus
).
INTRAORAL SENSOR HOLDER
The intraoral sensor holder consists of a base where the sensor can be placed
when it is not in use.
The intraoral sensor holder can be screwed close to the computer system using
the two supplied screws or other mounting material.
Alternatively, it may be glued to a uniform surface using the supplied double-
sided adhesive tape.
COMPUTER SYSTEM
Software requirements
For the correct performance of the New IDA software, some basic software
described below is necessary:
.Net Framework 4.5.1:
The NET Framework is essential to run several programs that
were developed through the use of this technology from Microsoft. This framework
offers a series of resources for the agile and robust development of applications.
The 4.5.1 version requires the Windows Vista SP2 or superior and it's included in
Windows 8.1 and in Windows Server 2012 R2.
wkhtmltopdf 0.12.3.2:
It's an open-source command line tool (LGPLv3) to render
HTML to PDF using the rendering mechanism from Qt WebKit. It works completely
"headless" and it doesn't require an exhibition service or exhibition.
The required software for the performance of the New IDA software will be
automatically installed, in shape of prerequisites, during the installation of the
application, offering more speed and convenience to the user.
