A three-dimensional measurement system for human jaw movements using a photoelectric camera.
A practical measurement system for human jaw movements has been developed and tested. It consisted of LEDs fixed on the upper and lower jaws, and photoelectric cameras. Although the system was constructed simply, it was accurate and could measure jaw movements regardless of the head movements.
