Abstract :
Currently holograms are being developed to portray casts of human teeth, known as study models, for dental purposes such as orthodontic requirements for the assessment of atheistic unacceptabilities. The paper describes a technique using light striping and artificial vision to create 3-D representations which can be portrayed and manipulated on a computer screen
