Hi all.
I'm a researcher at KIST in South Korea,
and we are planning to make a surgery guidance system
which indicate the proper location of incision and give advice to the surgeon by lasers.
For this, we want to buy a laser scanner system,
but we don't have any knowledge about it.
I think your advice and recommendations will be really helpful to us.
ANY KIND of COMMENTS are OK!
Here are some requirements and conditions:
- the projection size: less than 1 square meter
- the projection distance: less than 1~2 meter
- the image includes both dots and lines (and characters, if possible)
- the color is not important, but a multi-colored laser will be better
- the beam size and the scanning speed should be suitable to project dots and lines to the patient's skin.
- the final power should be strong enough to be clearly visible under surgical lighting
(surgical lighting is regulated between 40,000~160,000 lux)
- the final power should be safe for both the surgeon and the patient
(Lasers are directly projected to the patient's skin)
- the system should be highly precise
(I found some cheap ones, but they seem to have very poor precision)
- the total budget should be lower than $5000 (Of course, cheaper is better)
- We are planning to use Pangolin LD2000 SDK, but this can be changed.
If more information is needed, please let me know via replies.
I will wait for your valuable advice.
Thanks,
Sangjun Lee
