  • Patent number: 11974763
    Abstract: Methods and systems for identifying and determining the size and orientation of a reamed portion of a patient's bone are disclosed. A tracking array and/or point probe may be inserted into an adapter device. The adapter device comprising a plurality of openings, having various connection means therein, such that when the tracking array is inserted into the adapter, a secure and robust connection is created. A reamer, stem, or similar tool may then be inserted into the opposing side of the adapter, during which, a secure and robust connection is created between the adapter and the tool. Thus, through the use of Computer Assisted Surgery Systems, a more accurate representation of the patient's anatomy can be obtained.

  • Publication number: 20220165309
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, are provided, for generating video anchors for a video. In one aspect, a method includes obtaining key moment identifiers for a video, where each key moment identifier includes a time index value specifying a playback time in the video, and is indicative subject matter of the video that has been determined to meet one or more interest criteria that define salient topics within the video. For each key moment identifier, a video anchor is generated, where each video anchor indicates a playback time for the video, and may include an image of a frame that occurs near the playback time. Upon a selection of the video anchor by the user, an instruction in the video anchor causes a video player to begin playback of the video at the playback time specified by the video anchor.

  • Patent number: 4064810
    Abstract: A railway car door includes an operating mechanism having a pair of pipes and cranks rotatably secured to the door. By their rotation, the door is movable into and out of a door opening. The car is equipped to have internally-projecting lading restraining members removably attached to the inside car sidewall and filler members removably attached to the inside of the door. Pipe stops are provided for selectively increasing or decreasing the amount of rotation of the pipes and cranks possible so that when the filler members are attached to the door, the door can be moved laterally out of the opening a first greater distance and thereby permit the filler members to clear the sidewall or adjacent door of the car. When the filler members are removed, the door can be moved a second, lesser distance out of the opening and clear of the sidewall or adjacent door of the car.
