LEVERAGING TWO-DIMENSIONAL DIGITAL IMAGING AND COMMUNICATION IN MEDICINE IMAGERY IN THREE-DIMENSIONAL EXTENDED REALITY APPLICATIONS
A surgical system includes an XR headset and an XR headset controller. The XR headset is configured to be worn by a user during a surgical procedure and includes a see-through display screen configured to display an XR image for viewing by the user. The XR headset controller is configured to receive a plurality of two-dimensional (“2D”) image data associated with an anatomical structure of a patient. The XR headset controller is further configured to generate a first 2D image from the plurality of 2D image data based on a pose of the XR headset. The XR headset controller is further configured to generate a second 2D image from the plurality of 2D image data based on the pose of the XR headset. The XR headset controller is further configured to generate the XR image by displaying the first 2D image in a field of view of a first eye of the user and displaying the second 2D image in a field of view of a second eye of the user.
COMPUTER CONTROLLED SURGICAL ROTARY TOOL
A rotary tool includes a tool body and a powered rotary cutting tooltip that is oriented and positioned relative to the tool body by a plurality of processor-controlled actuators that provide degrees of freedom. The processor uses a surgical tracking system to identify the pose of the tool body and the tooltip relative to a patient's anatomy and controls the actuators to maintain the tooltip within a predetermined cutting plan to compensate for deviation of a surgeon's hand or a robotic arm controlling the tool body during a cutting operation.
HEADSET SYSTEM FOR BIOMEDICAL IMAGING FOR EARLY TUMOR DETECTION
An independent wearable biomedical imaging system for early tumor detection the system including a physician headset having a graphical display in wireless communication with a patient headset having a left and right camera. The physician headset includes a map template database disposed in the memory storage drive including data specifying anatomical location of a patient tumor using sclera scans of a patient sclera and iris received from the patient headset. The physician can visually access the sclera scans from the patient headset camera and overlay with the map template to compare patient scan biomarkers with the map data. The physician may use the results in indicating strong genotype predisposition to tumors and tumor formation. The system algorithm would continue to amass biodata in the datasets helping the physician to increase accuracy in generating eye reports and statistical probability of tumor as well as genetic marker predisposition of the same.
Method for analysing a dental situation
A method for analyzing a real dental situation of a patient. The method includes steps, as follows, in succession. At an updated instant, acquisition of an updated image representing a real dental scene as observed by an operator. Determination of a virtual dental scene as a function of the representation of the real dental scene on the updated image. Presentation of the virtual dental scene in transparent mode and overlaid on the real dental scene, or display of the updated image on a screen and presentation of the virtual dental scene overlaid with the representation of the real dental scene on the updated image displayed on the screen, in transparent mode or not on the representation.
Self-contained electromagnetic tracking unit
An electromagnetic tracking system includes a magnetic transmitter configured to output magnetic fields, a receiver responsive to the magnetic fields, an electronics assembly having conductive elements that cause distortion to the magnetic fields, and an output mechanism configured to output a position of the receiver relative to the magnetic transmitter, wherein the magnetic transmitter has at least one winding disposed around a hollow ferromagnetic core comprised of conductive material through which current is made to flow by the electronics, wherein the electronics assembly is at least partially contained within the hollow portion of the hollow ferromagnetic core. Methods of manufacturing include shaping walls into a hollow shell to surround an electronics assembly, covering the hollow shell with ferromagnetic material, inserting the wrapped hollow shell into a plastic bobbin, and winding the plastic bobbin with coil wire to produce three orthogonal windings.
Sterile cover for a mixed reality (MR) device
Disclosed is a sterile cover (100) for a Mixed Reality (MR) device (101). The sterile cover (100) may comprise a first case (102) arranged for covering a front side of the MR device (101). The first case (102) may comprise a hard case with an embedded clear layer (114) for covering a glass area of the front side of the MR device (101). The sterile cover (100) may further comprise a second case (104). The second case (104) may be arranged for covering a headband side of the MR device (101). The second case (104) may comprise a stretchable case for allowing a flexible adjustment of the headband side of the MR device (101) within the second case (104).
WEARABLE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR ADJUSTING DISPLAY STATE BASED ON ENVIRONMENT
A wearable device and a method for adjusting a display state based on an environment are provided. The method is adapted for the wearable device. The method includes: capturing an environmental image; when determining that there is a specific object in the environmental image, determining a display mode of a display circuit based on the specific object; and controlling the display circuit to be adjusted to a display state corresponding to the display mode.
Augmented reality glasses with auto coregistration of invisible field on visible reality
Augmented reality glasses with auto coregistration of an invisible field on visible reality which allows eyes to recognize a real space and precisely performs coregistration on only diagnosis and treatment information of invisible light, which is emitted from a specific area, to the real space.
IDENTIFYING FOLLICULAR UNITS
A follicular unit harvesting process receives images for analysis and identifies and highlights clusters of hair. The analysis includes pixel type determination, pixel clustering, cluster classification and cluster highlighting or replacement. The analysis of the pixels is performed concurrently, and the results of the analysis are optionally used for automated treatment planning.
Registration of surgical tool with reference array tracked by cameras of an extended reality headset for assisted navigation during surgery
A camera tracking system is disclosed for computer assisted navigation during surgery. The camera tracking system is configured to identify a reference array tracked by a set of tracking cameras attached to an extended reality (XR) headset, and determine whether the reference array is registered as being paired with characteristics of one of a plurality of surgical tools defined in a surgical tool database. The camera tracking system is further configured to, based on the reference array being determined to not be registered and receiving user input, register the reference array to be paired with characteristics of one of the plurality of surgical tools selected based on the user input. The camera tracking system is further configured to provide a representation of the characteristics to a display device of the XR headset for display to the user.
