Summary of the Inventive Concept
A novel 3D radiography system that combines the patented fast 3D radiography technology with AI, blockchain, and IoT technologies to create a more powerful and efficient system for generating high-quality 3D images with reduced radiation exposure.
Background and Problem Solved
The original patent disclosed a fast 3D radiography system using multiple pulsed X-ray sources by deflecting tube electron beam using electro-magnetic field. However, this system lacked the ability to securely store and manage 3D image data, optimize X-ray source activation schemes, and integrate with IoT-enabled sensor networks. The new inventive concept addresses these limitations by incorporating AI, blockchain, and IoT technologies to create a more robust and efficient 3D radiography system.
Detailed Description of the Inventive Concept
The AI-integrated blockchain-enabled 3D radiography system consists of a blockchain-enabled primary motor stage that securely stores and manages 3D image data. The system also includes a plurality of X-ray sources each mounted at the primary motor stage, which are activated using a predetermined scheme optimized by an AI algorithm. Additionally, the system integrates a digital flat panel detector with an IoT-enabled sensor network to enable real-time monitoring and optimization of the 3D imaging process. The AI-powered predictive maintenance module ensures optimal system performance and reduces downtime.
Novelty and Inventive Step
The new claims introduce the novel combination of AI, blockchain, and IoT technologies with the patented fast 3D radiography technology, which provides a significant improvement in image quality, radiation exposure reduction, and system efficiency. The use of AI algorithms to optimize X-ray source activation schemes and the integration of IoT-enabled sensor networks are non-obvious and innovative aspects of the new inventive concept.
Alternative Embodiments and Variations
Alternative embodiments of the inventive concept could include the use of different AI algorithms, blockchain protocols, or IoT sensor networks. Additionally, the system could be adapted for use in various medical or industrial applications, such as security screening or material inspection.
Potential Commercial Applications and Market
The AI-integrated blockchain-enabled 3D radiography system has significant commercial potential in the medical imaging industry, particularly in applications such as cancer diagnosis and treatment planning. The system's ability to reduce radiation exposure and improve image quality also makes it attractive for industrial applications such as security screening and material inspection.
