Abstract
A method of creating a subsurface engraved crystal comprising the steps of: performing a 3D/4D scan of a subject; saving the volumetric data; generating a point cloud based on the volumetric data; outputting the point cloud to a laser engraver; and engraving a crystal with the laser engraver.
Claims26
A method of creating a subsurface engraved crystal comprising the steps of:
- performing a 3D/4D scan of a subject to produce volumetric data;
- saving the volumetric data;
- generating a point cloud based on the volumetric data;
- outputting the point cloud to a laser engraver;
- and
- engraving a crystal with the laser engraver.
(canceled)
A method according to any preceding claim, wherein the 3D/4D scan comprises an ultrasound scan, wherein the subject comprises a fetus in utero.
(canceled)
An apparatus for creating a subsurface engraved crystal comprising:
- means for performing a 3D/4D scan of a subject;
- a storage means for saving the volumetric data;
- means for generating a point cloud based on the volumetric data;
- and
- means for outputting the point cloud to a laser engraver, which then engraves a crystal.
