Abstract

Physicians clinically use laryngeal video stroboscope as an auxiliary instrument to test glottal diseases, and read vocal fold images and voice quality for diagnosis. As the position of vocal fold varies in each person, the proportion of the vocal fold size as presented in the vocal fold image is different, making it impossible to directly estimate relevant glottis physiological parameters, such as the length, area, perimeter, and opening angle of the glottis. Hence, this study designs an innovative laser projection marking module for the laryngeal video stroboscope to provide reference parameters for image scaling conversion. This innovative laser projection marking module to be installed on the laryngeal video stroboscope using laser beams to project onto the glottis plane, in order to provide reference parameters for scaling conversion of images of laryngeal video stroboscope.
