Version 5.0 (Build 22) (Released 2009-04-22)

• Integration of new ICM.
• New JPEG library utilized.

Version 5.0 (Build 21) (Released 2009-03-11)

• Integration of new SDK.
• Integration of new interface controls.
• The first time the TWAIN source is run, it prompts the user to select which Instrumentarium hardware they will be user. By default, everything is enabled.
• “Supported OP Hardware” changed to “Support Extraoral Hardware” and other verbiage updated.
• Naming of extraoral hardware updated to OP/OC100D, etc.
• Flipped 16-bit images when returning images in native format has been corrected.
• “Sensor Ready” status is only displayed when all sensors that are being enabled are ready. To reduce the likelihood that someone will inadvertently expose a patient to x-rays separate ready indicators are not displayed if more than one sensor is enabled at the same time.
• Firmware download status display implemented. An animated graphic is displayed in the message area while firmware is being downloaded from one or more sensors.
• Verbiage changed for Snapshot image quality options.
• Hardware information has been updated to correct missing information and to change information that is not applicable for a selected hardware system.
• “Sensor Ready” indicator display corrected when a lengthy image enhancement is being performed and the sensor sends a ready message to the software. Previously the “Sensor Ready” indicator would either not be displayed or would be hidden again when additional messages were displayed indicating the status of processing an image.
• Single capture mode -vs- series capture mode now specified to the hardware when the user starts image capture.
• Hardware information dialog made bigger to display more information at the same time.
• A visual and audible warning is now displayed when a sensor system is close to timing out.
• Noise reduction is now performed before sharpening in the image processing order.

Version 5.0 (Build 12) (Released 2008-08-20)

• Integration of new SDK.
• Better handling of “ready” messages when more than one hardware is being enabled.
• Addition of Snapshot gailfile download from the hardware.
• Better timing of “ready” message when in continuous capture mode.

Version 5.0 (Build 3) (Released 2008-05-15)

• Added binning support for the Snapshot sensor.
• Changed how the “Ready” screen works in continuous capture mode. Now the “Ready” is only displayed when the hardware indicates it is actually ready.

• Added Snapshot sensor support.
• Reformatted several screens for better display on smaller computer screens.
• Reformatted how some of the device information is displayed.

Version 4.0 (Build 14) (Released 2008-05-08)

• Installer updated to properly set the user folder permissions on non-English versions of Vista.
• Changes made to more accurately enable/disable Sigma, SigmaM Small and SigmaM Large sensors based on what options and hardware the user enables.
• Hardware information displays now limited to the appropriately selected hardware in the various preference pages.
• Corrections made to floating sensor selection dialog. Previously this dialog could disappear based on different operations performed by the user or how the TWAIN source started.
• SigmaM floating sensor status is no longer displayed when the user is acquiring with the Sigma sensor.

Version 4.0 (Build 10) (Released 2008-04-22)

• Minimum interface size reduced so that the interface fits better on a 1024×768 screen.
• “Options” button now disabled with an image acquisition is started.
• Add Sensor application (new version 1.0 build 3) now displays different messages depending on what was encountered during the process of copying sensor/gain files. Previously it would report a successful copy even if the sensor/gain files were not copied due to user permission problems.
• “Always indicate one image is available” option functionality changed. Previously the TWAIN source would report only one image was available each time the invoking application asked for how many images were available (the invoking application could ask how many images are available, get the one image and then ask again – the TWAIN source would say “1” again if there were additional images that could be transferred). Some application ask this question more than once and thus would retrieve all the images during one TWAIN invocation. This option was changed to only indicate one image is available period no matter how many times the invoking application asks how many are available.

Version 4.0 (Build 9) (Released 2008-03-18)

• New interface design implemented
• Multiple image acquisition capabilities added. Previous interface only permitted a single image capture at a time. The new interface permits acquisition of multiple images which are then displayed as thumbnails.

• New options added to enable the user to enable/disable different hardware support in the interface.
• New Instrumentarium DLLs added to the product.
• Installer now sets user permissions on the target folder. Due to Window’s security settings, the new installer will NOT set the permissions on a previously installed version of the product.
• SigmaM support added.
• Continuous image acquisition mode added for acquiring images from the Sigma and SigmaM hardware.
• Improved error handling added when controlling Sigma/SigmaM sensors.
• “Add Sensor” functionality has been extracted to a separate program.
• Better notification messages added to what is happening with the image acquisition from the various hardware platforms.
• Improved text display for “Sensor Ready” message.
• Improved hardware enabling/disabling support added. This enhancement improves performance of initializing hardware when more than one image is acquired.
• Improved functionality under Vista.
