multiple design awards
The Planmeca Solanna™ Vision operating light with
integrated 4K cameras was awarded in the Red Dot Award:
Product Design competition.
THE INTELLIGENT Planmeca Solanna™ Vision dental operating light with integrated
4K cameras and microphones has convinced the jury of the renowned Red Dot design
competition, which received more than 6,500 product entries from manufacturers all
over the world in 2020.
The operating light can be used for taking still images of the patient’s teeth or for
recording dental procedures, among other things. The light opens up completely
new possibilities for patient communication, consultation, documentation and dental
education.
Built on an evolving platform, Planmeca Solanna Vision will allow dental professionals
to enjoy groundbreaking new features through software upgrades in
the future as well.
”The operating light is an important working tool for the dentist, since a big part
of dental work is based on visual perception,” explains Planmeca’s Senior Industrial
Designer Timo Silvonen.
”Taking photos of the patient’s teeth is also an everyday task at a dental clinic. We
decided to combine the patient light and camera into one product, which makes the
clinical workflow much smoother. Receiving the Red Dot is a great recognition and
really confirms that our focus on innovative design that improves the everyday life of
dental professionals is the right approach.” ◢
