Method and system for automatic brightness/gain control while measuring localized oral inflammation |
abstract |
A method ( 500 ) for localizing gingival inflammation using an oral care device ( 10 ), the method comprising: (i) emitting ( 520 ) light at a first intensity by a light emitter ( 42 ); (ii) obtaining ( 530 ) first reflectance measurements reflectance data; (iii) determining ( 540 ), by a controller ( 30 ) from the first reflectance data, whether the location comprises gingiva; (iv) automatically adjusting ( 550 ), based at least in part on the first reflectance data, the intensity of a light emitter to a second intensity different from the first intensity, and/or automatically adjusting ( 550 ) a gain of a light detector; (v) obtaining ( 560 ) a second plurality of reflectance measurements by the light detector of the oral care device for at least some of the locations; and (vi) determining ( 570 ), using the second plurality of reflectance measurements, whether gingiva at the location is inflamed. |
