  • Driving Devices and Methods for Determining Material Strength in Real-Time
    Publication number: 20240058016
    Abstract: A system including an instrument having a working tool configured to penetrate a tissue; a sensor configured to generate in real-time one or more torque signals related to torque of the working tool; a controller in operative communication with the sensor and configured to receive the one or more torque signals. The controller processes the torque signals into one or more processed signals representative of torque, energy, power or a combination thereof. The system also includes a display providing to the user in real-time the one or more processed signals. Related devices, systems, methods, and articles are provided.

  • Laser imaging system with adjustable optical element mounting fixture and related methods
    Patent number: 10082667
    Abstract: A laser imaging system may include a laser source, a laser receiver, a rotatable base defining a rotation axis, and an optical element (OE) carried by the rotatable base in an optical path between the laser source and laser receiver. An adjustable OE mounting fixture may mount the OE to be adjustably movable with respect to the rotatable base in a plane transverse to the rotation axis. A controller may be configured to adjust the adjustable OE mounting fixture to provide scan angle compensation.
