Publication number: 20230280839Abstract: A controller is capable of controlling an asset or target in physical and/or virtual three-dimensional space using a single hand by generating control inputs in four or more degrees of freedom while also limiting cross-coupling (unintended motions). The controller includes a first control member is configured to be gripped in a user's single, second control member is disposed on or near a top end of the first member movable with at least one degree of freedom independently of the movement of the first control member, and a third control member positioned on the first member for displacement by one or more digits of the user's single hand and coupled with the second member to move in opposition to movement of the second control member.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 25, 2022Publication date: September 7, 2023Applicant: Fluidity Technologies Inc.Inventors: Scott Edward PARAZYNSKI, Jeffrey William BULL, Nicholas Michael DEGNAN, Alina Mercedes MATSON, Brandon TRAN

Publication number: 20220110577Abstract: A guiding sheath has a hemostatic valve and a central lumen into which a diagnostic or treatment catheter can be introduced and guided into a patient. The hemostatic valve also includes an electrically conducting element or proximity sensing element on its proximal end that interacts with a second electrically conducting element or proximity sensing element on a proximal end of the diagnostic or treatment catheter that can be passed through the central lumen of the guiding sheath and into the patient's heart. The interaction between the two electrically conducting elements or proximity sensing elements enables the location of the distal end of the diagnostic or treatment catheter in the patient's heart without the need for irradiating the patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 24, 2021Publication date: April 14, 2022Applicant: Biosense Webster (Israel) Ltd.Inventors: Debby HIGHSMITH, Paul SUAREZ, Brandon TRAN, Tara GOMEZ-HAMPTON, Elijah LI
