Abstract
A marking and display system includes a scanning apparatus, comprising a processor in data communication with a networking device, at least one input/output device, and computer memory, the computer memory comprising a program having machine readable instructions that, when effected by processor, perform the following steps: (a) scan an area of interest for a first scan; (b) determine the presence of at least one abnormality at the area of interest; and (c) provide a marking at an area substantially adjacent the at least one abnormality.
Claims16
A marking and display system, comprising:
- a projection apparatus embodied in a housing, the projection apparatus comprising:
- a processor in data communication with computer memory, the computer memory comprising a program having machine readable instructions that, when effectuated by the processor, perform the following steps:
- (a) receive information regarding a plurality of objects on a scanning area from a user;
- (b) project a first image onto the scanning area;
- (c) scan the scanning area to determine at least one characteristic about the plurality of objects on the scanning area;
- (d) project a second image onto the scanning area, wherein the second image is a plurality of second images based at least partially on the scan, and each of the plurality of second images is associated with a respective object of the plurality of objects;
- (e) compare the scan to the information provided by the user;
- and
- (f) project a third image onto the scanning area, wherein the third image is based on the scan and the information provided by the user, the third image thereby identifying a difference between the number of objects on the scanning area and the number of objects that should be on the scanning area;
- wherein:
- the information regarding the object includes a number of objects that should be on the scanning area;
- each of the plurality of second images is a circle;
- the third image is one or more third images;
- if the difference between the number of objects on the scanning area and the number of objects that should be on the scanning area is an excess of objects in the scanning area, each of the one or more third images is associated with a respective object of the excess of objects;
- and
- if the difference between the number of objects on the scanning area and the number of objects that should be on the scanning area is a lack of objects in the scanning area, each of the one or more third images identifies a location where a supplemental object should be provided onto the scanning area.
