Artificial intelligence will help increase the comfort of dentists' work

The dentist
Scientists from the ETI Faculty of Gdańsk University of Technology are participating in the work on creating a device that works with commonly used dental tips for non-invasive, optical control of the inside of the oral cavity when performing a dental procedure. The project is carried out by Master Level Technologies in cooperation with the GUT special purpose vehicle Excento, as well as Bibus Menos and Lambda System.

The project was started in 2020. The final result of the work will be a device in the form of a small webcam cooperating with dental tips. The camera will allow the dentist to observe the tooth closely and in real time during the dental procedure. The device will allow the doctor to work more precisely in hard-to-reach places, which will shorten the time of the procedure and potentially reduce the pain associated with it.

Gdańsk University of Technology and Hochschule Bremen (HSB) will jointly educate high-class specialists in the field of space technologies. The project called SpaceBriGade assumes the creation of an international full-time study program with a general academic profile of the 2nd cycle studies. 15 Polish and 15 German students will study together, alternately at both universities.  

The new studies will be based on the second-cycle studies conducted by both universities, i.e. ‘Aerospace Technologies’, ‘Computer Science’ and ‘Electrical and Electronics Engineering’ at the Hochschule Bremen and ‘Space and Satellite Technologies’ conducted by the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and the Faculty of ETI of Gdańsk University of Technology together with the Maritime University of Gdynia, the Naval Academy in Gdynia and the University of Gdańsk.
