Abstract: Eye gaze measurements are used to give input to a surgical robotic system. Eye tracking input is enhanced using a pair of eye trackers positioned to track the gaze of a user observing an endoscopic image on a display. At least one of the eye trackers is moveable relative to the display in a horizontal and/or vertical direction relative to the image display.

Abstract: A plant for building a tyre for a vehicle wheel includes a device for building carcass sleeves on building drums, a bead-forming machine, a first storage region, a second storage region, a first transport device movable between a picking-up position of pairs of annular anchoring structures in the first storage region and a release position of the pairs of annular anchoring structures in the bead-forming machine, and a second transport device movable between a first engagement position in the first storage region and a second engagement position in the second storage region, to move a plurality of annular anchoring structures between the first storage region and the second storage region.

Abstract: A process for building tyres for vehicle wheels are disclosed, wherein said building process comprises the following steps carried out in a carcass structure building line: a) associating a pair of support rings with a forming drum in a work station for associating support rings; b) building at least one structural component of the tyre being processed on the forming drum provided with said pair of support rings in at least one work station of the carcass structure building line; c) removing the pair of support rings from the forming drum in a work station for removing support rings; d) transferring the pair of support rings dissociated from the forming drum in a temporary storage for support rings; e) building at least one further structural component of the tyre being processed on the forming drum without the pair of support rings in a work station of the carcass structure building line.

Abstract: Eye gaze measurements are used to give input to a surgical robotic system. Eye tracking input is enhanced using a pair of eye trackers positioned to track the gaze of a user observing an endoscopic image on a display. At least one of the eye trackers is moveable relative to the display in a horizonal and/or vertical direction relative to the image display.

Abstract: A method of controlling the management of annular anchoring structures in a process and a plant for building tyres for vehicle wheels, comprises: a) feeding pairs of first annular anchoring structures (6?) from a first storage region (21) to a bead-forming machine (20); b) loading a plurality of second annular anchoring structures (6?) into a second storage region (22); c) carrying the second annular anchoring structures (6?) from the second storage region (22) to the first storage region (21); d) feeding pairs of second annular anchoring structures (6?) from the first storage region (21) to the bead-forming machine (20). The method comprises the sequential cyclic repetition of the above actions.
