What is Occlusion

1.

Occlusion describes the relationships between the maxillary and mandibular teeth. Static occlusion refers to contact between teeth when the mandible is closed into complete tooth interdigitation and is stationary. Dynamic occlusion refers to occlusal contacts made when the mandible is moving excursively. Centric occlusion is referred to as a person's habitual bite, the bite of convenience, or the intercuspation position (ICP) (not to be confused with centric relation).

2.

The covering up or the obscuring of an object by another which obscures the backgrounded object from full view; occlusion may be static as in a still image, or it may be dynamic as in a temporary moving occlusion Learn more in: Thin Screen: The Creation of Depth Perception in Desktop Virtual Reality in Alignment with Human Visual Perception

A term indicating that a region which is visible in the previous image has now been covered/obscured from view in the current image. Learn more in: Using Dynamic Visualizations to Enhance Learning in Physical Geography

An occlusion occurs when a joint or more is hidden from the camera. Self-occlusion means that one body part hides another part. Learn more in: A Validation Study of Rehabilitation Exercise Monitoring Using Kinect

9.

When one object is in front of another object in the direction of observation, a portion of the object that is behind cannot be seen. Then, the second object is occluded by the first one. Learn more in: Advances in Tracking and Recognition of Human Motion
