`
`LISTING OF CHALLENGED CLAIMS
`1. [Preamble] A system for determining surface topology and associated color of
`at least a portion of a three-dimensional structure, comprising:
`
`
`[Element 1.1] a hand-held device comprising:
`[Element 1.2] a scanning system configured to provide depth data of
`said portion, the depth data corresponding to a plurality of data points
`defined on a plane substantially orthogonal to a depth direction;
`[Element 1.3] an imaging system configured to provide two-
`dimensional color image data of said portion associated with said plurality of
`data points;
`[Element 1.4] an illumination unit configured to transmit a first array
`of incident light along a path towards the three-dimensional structure; and
`[Element 1.5] a detector configured to measure intensity of each of a
`plurality of returned light that returns along the path and from the three-
`dimensional structure; and
`
`[Element 1.6] a processor operably coupled to the hand-held device
`and configured to associate the depth data with the two-dimensional color
`image data.
`
`3.
`The system according to claim 1, wherein the plurality of data points is
`associated with a two-dimensional reference array.
`
`4.
`
`
`[Preamble] The system according to claim 1,
`
`[Element 4.1] wherein the operation of the scanning system is based
`
`on confocal imaging techniques, and
`
`[Element 4.2] wherein the scanning system is configured to: cause
`
`the illumination system to transmit the first array of incident light along the
`path towards the three-dimensional structure;

`
`
`
`[Element 4.3] cause the detector to measure intensity of each of the
`
`plurality of returned light that return along the path and from the three-
`dimensional structure.
`
`
`6.
`The system according to claim 1, wherein the associated depth data and the
`two-dimensional color image data represent the color and surface topology of the
`portion of the three-dimensional structure.
