Alexander Beer has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 12127866
    Abstract: A medical device of an embodiment includes at least one movably mounted and motor-adjustable component; at least one drive unit for adjusting the at least one component; at least one motor control unit associated with the drive unit; and at least one sensing unit for sensing a position parameter dependent on the position of the at least one component. According to an embodiment of the invention, a safety function is integrated in the motor control unit. The safety function limits at least one operating parameter associated with the motion of the at least one component to be performed. An apparatus control unit controls the drive unit in dependence on the position parameter in accordance with the safety function. At least one embodiment of the invention further relates to a method for operating a medical device.

  • Patent number: 12050461
    Abstract: A remote vehicle control system includes a vehicle mounted sensor system including a video camera system for producing video data. A data handling system is connected to a network to transmit data to and receive data from a remote teleoperation site. A virtual control system is configured to receive the video, provide a user with a live video stream supported by machine intelligence directed frame synthesis, and transmit control instructions to the remote vehicle over the network. The frame synthesis is supported by a convolutional neural network. The frame synthesis may be used to interpolate frames to increase effective frames per second. The frame synthesis may be used to extrapolate frames to replace missing or damaged video frames.

  • Patent number: 11980487
    Abstract: A stand is for a medical imaging system. In an embodiment, the stand includes an X-ray tube; a driver to adjust the X-ray tube in at least three spatial degrees of freedom; at least one environmental sensor to acquire at least one environmental parameter; and a controller to control an adjustment movement of the X-ray tube by generating control signals for the drive unit and to adapt the adjustment movement based on the at least one environmental parameter.

  • Publication number: 20080042498
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a machine element of an electric machine, with a plurality of magnetic poles distributed around a machine axis and with at least one coil, having several conductors distributed around the machine axis and each of which is located in a groove, wherein the machine element forms a gap surface enclosing the machine axis, on which (gap surface) when the machine is mounted it adjoins a second machine element via a machine gap and is made of a plastic, and wherein at least in the recesses for the conductors, channel sections are formed through which a coolant can circulate.
