Podcasts about Photogrammetry

This week we bring 3 great conversation from the great Cal-Lab Association meeting that happened in February during Lab Day Chicago. First up is someone that has to put up with Elvis on a regular basis at Derby Dental Lab (https://www.derbydental.com/), Liam Johns. Liam talks about growing up with a technician father, becoming the removable manager at a young age, and how digital excites him for the future of dental technology. Then we chat with two gentlemen from Wiand Dental Lab (https://www.wiandlab.com/), Tom Wiand and Scott Lowrey. Tom tells the story of starting the lab in the early 90s, organically growing through the years, and keeping up with technology. Scott talks about going from selling burs to selling restorations 10 years ago. Now he does education, chairside support, and helps the lab succeed. We wrap up the episode with former player for the Pittsburg Steelers, Matt Cushing. Once done, a buddy asked if he would do sales for his lab. Not knowing anything about teeth, it wasn't long before Matt found a passion for the industry and opened First Choice Dental Lab (https://www.firstchoicelab.com/) and is now (17 years later) a lab that has acquired other labs, grew to full service, and has a satellite lab in another state. Don't miss this incredible webinar with Tanya Little, a dentist from beautiful Vancouver, Canada. We would like to invite you to a special webinar that she's hosting with Ivoclar (https://www.ivoclar.com/en_us) and LMT (https://lmtmag.com/) on Wednesday, May 7th, titled "Reflections from a Denturist: 20 Years of Crafting Dentures!". In this program, she will review the incredible history of removables with Ivoclar and focus on the new and exciting evolution based print resin and of course, the PM7. Her goal is to provide you with several key takeaways that will allow you to work smarter and not harder.

► Save 30% with Code: WGAN30REG at www.3DISE.com --- The Future of 3D Spatial Innovation Eric Marquette Just looking at the lineup for 3DISE Conference 2025, it's like a who's who of the spatial tech world. I mean, over thirty top speakers, covering everything from digital twins to AI-powered photogrammetry? It's kind of mind-blowing. Dan Smigrod Absolutely. This is, without a doubt, one of the most intensive conferences for professionals in our field. Digital twins, for example, are going far beyond architecture now. They're being used in urban planning, industrial plants, even entertainment. It's—it's fascinating how the technology keeps expanding its reach. Eric Marquette Right. And I love the phrase 'information tsunami' they used to describe the event. Like, think about that session on "A.I. and Photogrammetry." That intersection is where things are getting super innovative. Dan Smigrod A.I.'s application to photogrammetry, it's really remarkable. Just imagine the speed and detail improvement in processing 3D models. We're talking tasks that used to take days, or weeks, now done in hours. And these models aren't just static—A.I. allows them to be predictive. Eric Marquette That's it. Predictive modeling! And, people always think of this stuff as being only for massive projects. But it's trickling down. Even smaller firms can now afford—and actually benefit from—A.I.-powered tools. Dan Smigrod Exactly. And this leads us to the keynote on digital twins—another massive shift. What's amazing about digital twins is their versatility. In factories, they simulate production; in retail, they're creating virtual tours of spaces. It's this blending of physical and digital worlds. Eric Marquette Like, how cool is that? You can take a space or system and make the virtual version so detailed that you're basically predicting the future. I mean, airports, theme parks, entire cities—they're building these twins and saying, "Here's how we optimize this." It's wild stuff. Dan Smigrod This is shaping up to be one of the must-attend conferences of the year. From deep-dives like "Reality Capture and GIS" to big-picture panels about collaboration. Eric Marquette It's a glimpse into the future of how we design, create, and connect through 3D innovation. Dan Smigrod The 3DISE Conference 2025 ... is Thursday, April 24th and Friday, April 25th in Prague. Save 30 percent with code: WGAN30REG at 3DISE.com. That's 3-D-I-S-E dot com.

We are back from IDS in Cologne, Germany. THANK YOU exocad for hosting us and everyone, be prepared for some amazing new features coming to you soon! Along with a TON of crazy good conversations. So when we got an email from the creators of a device that Elvis uses all the time asking to be on the podcast, we jumped at the opportunity. Luckly we were all going to be at the Cal-Lab Association (https://cal-lab.org/) meeting that happens the same week at Lab Day Chicago. This time, Elvis sits down with Danny Yao and Dr. Russell Crockett. Danny has a long history in sales with implants and full arch workflows. Dr. Crockett is a practicing Prosthodontist that loves to design better ways to do dentistry. Meeting awhile ago, Danny saw Dr. Crockett's prototype for a way to get accurate full arch records using just an iOS scanner. Together they created OptiSplint (https://digitalarches.com/collections/optisplint%C2%AE-the-easiest-and-most-accurate-implant-positioning-system-for-full-arch) and ArchTracer (https://digitalarches.com/collections/archtracer%E2%84%A2-the-only-fiducial-marker-you-will-ever-need). Simply put, they screw onto MUAs, lute together, and you can get a series of scans pretty much guaranteed to perfect. Want to know more about this amazing workflow? Take a listen as we dive deeper into all that Digital Arches (https://digitalarches.com/) does. Take it from Laura Prosser, the digital marketing manager for Ivoclar North America (https://www.ivoclar.com/en_us). She would like to invite you to start following them on Instagram.

Alan is joined with Dr. Armen Mirzayan and Damien Bonner of CAD-Ray for a second round of discussion on digital dentistry! Damien explains a typical progression of someone moving into digital dentistry. Companies shouldn't sell digital products to dentists that aren't ready for them. Armen is a very cheap salesperson.  Buy your scanner from someone who knows something about scanners. CAD-Ray are terrible sales people but amazing support people. Armen on scan bodies One very cool thing about digital dentistry is that we can verify accuracy in ways that you can't in analog dentistry. Digital margins are tiny enough that we cannot manufacture to the tolerances that we actually see on the digital impression. The slop is in manufacturing more than digital scanning Photogrammetry and the accuracy of digital scanners over an edentulous scan. How to make an accurate scan for full arch implants Intraoral photgrammetry with the Shining 3D Aoralscan Elite This is going to start making smaller implant cases faster and cheaper!

This week's North American Ag Spotlight is a little different, last week I attended the 2024 American Agri-women Fly-In in Washington DC. Among the many speakers we heard there was one extraordinarily excellent presentation by University of Delaware Professor Emeritus David R. Legates, Ph.D., C.C.M. His content is thought provoking and important as it flies against the grain of current ideology. From the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation. David R. Legates presentation was titled, 'How will Climate Change Affect Agriculture?' he did a deep dive into real climate data and how environmental extremism is causing problems for the American farmer and overall global food security. Legates has testified three times as an expert witness before the US Senate Committee on the Environment and Public Works and before both Pennsylvania House and Senate Committee meetings on climate change. He participated in the historic joint USA-USSR protocol for the exchange of climate information in 1990, won the 2002 Boeing Autometric Award for the Best Paper in Image Analysis and Interpretation by the American Society of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, won First Place in the International Statistical Institute (ISI) and ESRI Paper Competition in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and was awarded the Courage in Defense of Science Award in 2015.About American Agri-WomenAmerican Agri-Women (AAW) promotes the welfare of our national security through a safe and reliable food, fiber and mineral supply.

Video Version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ntowztjf7EQ Gabe on Twitter/X: @Gabeproulx Gabe and River discuss topics related to idealism, consciousness, and the nature of reality. They explore River's paper on idealism and its connection to Stephen Wolfram's work, as well as Gabe's experiences with Kundalini awakening and his exploration of entropy. They discuss different perspectives on the Ruliad and consciousness, the nature of time and the past, and the value of embracing paradox and limitations. The role of chaos and order in consciousness is examined, along with the connection between information and relationships. The discussion also touches on the cyclical nature of materialism and the incompleteness of models. The relationship between quantum mechanics and consciousness is discussed, as well as the role of AI in the collective consciousness. The future of consciousness are also examined, along with the dream as a model of consciousness. The conversation explores the grand purpose of life and the practical implications of finding meaning and purpose.

EveryPoint combines photogrammetry techniques with the iPhone Pro's LiDAR scanner to fill in the gaps, as well as utilizes the positional / accelerometer data from the Apple AR toolkit. When combined, this delivers color 3D models that are said to be more accurate than simply using the iPhone's LiDAR scanner alone. EveryPoint is not an end user product in itself, but a technology layer on which developers can create their solutions, in construction and other industries. In this Podcast, Jonathan Stephens, the Chief Evangelist and Marketing Director at EveryPoint, talks about EveryPoint, the possible applications of photogrammetry, AI and machine learning – and the future of EveryPoint.

“But here's my plug: All the great things about Christmas are present at Thanksgiving - without the pressure of buying shit for people. And so you get the feast. You get the opulent … the harvest feast. And you're usually connecting with an N of people that you have an N amount of feelings for. And maybe some people are struggling with their family - I get that.You're usually connecting with an extended group of people you care about and there's no pretense… It's just like, “Yeah, we gotta have this meal together.” Worst case scenario, you get into a turkey measuring contest. It happens. Not everyone can wield a 22-pound turkey.”Show Notes:Trust fails (00:46)VRBO sucks (04:51)The ship of Theseus (09:13)AirBNB stories (10:23)New York taxis (13:14)City design (17:42)The dad transition (22:26)It's the holiday season (24:14)The Christmas plug (28:05)Big Chris facts (31:23)Paul Rudd (39:48)Smoking and grilling misadventures (44:13)A mustard conundrum (47:24)Awkward dreams (49:12)Casey discovers PDAL (53:19)Photogrammetry (54:36)OpenCV (56:20)YOLO v3 (57:34)Thanksgiving reminders (1:03:45)Show Links:Lofty wants you!

Their aligners are used as a pre-treatment to a larger restorative esthetic case, to widen gaps prior to placing implants, to close a diastema, ease crowding, and simply enhance your patient's smiles. Even for your Essix retainer needs your Gro3X aligner certified lab can help.
