Magnetic wireless motion capturing system and its application for jaw tracking system and 3D computer input device

  • Published : 2002.12.01

Abstract

We present the new jaw tracking system that utilizes five degrees of freedom of head and lower jaw. The proposed method does not disturb the physiology because the system does not need to fix magnetic field sensors or clutch on the patient's body or mouth. The impact of this result goes beyond the conventional optical and magnetic tracking system of jaw movement [1][2]. Position accuracy within 1mm and reasonable cost is necessary for practical use of the jaw tracking system. (omitted)
