  • Publication number: 20240239355
    Abstract: A method for determining a vehicle configuration (24) adapted to driving behavior of a person includes: determining a driving profile (20) of the person, wherein the driving profile (20) includes a speed profile and/or an acceleration profile of a vehicle (10) controlled by the person; determining category values (28) for the driving profile (20) for a plurality of vehicle configurations (24), wherein the category values (28) include one or both of an energy consumption and CO2 emissions of the particular vehicle configuration (24), wherein the energy consumption and/or the CO2 emissions are/is calculated from the speed profile and/or the acceleration profile; and determining an optimal vehicle configuration (24) by ascertaining vehicle configuration values (30) for each vehicle configuration (24) by weighting the category values (28) for each vehicle configuration (24) and selecting an optimal vehicle configuration value (30).

  • Publication number: 20230201021
    Abstract: A head stabilization device useable for stabilizing a head of a patient during a medical procedure includes a modular design where stabilization assemblies of various configurations are interchangeable at receiving portions along a frame. The device includes a tensioning feature positioned away from the stabilization assembly but still operable to increase or decrease an amount of force the stabilization assembly applies to the patient's head. The device includes a locking feature for a stabilization assembly having a rotatable member having one or more stabilization features connected thereto. The device includes an adjustment feature to adjust a spacing between frame members with the adjustment feature providing a continuous range of adjustment rather than finite adjustment increments.

  • Publication number: 20220096195
    Abstract: A joint assembly and adapter couple with a head stabilization device about one or more circumferential toothed rings of the head stabilization device. This coupling provides rotatable adjustment of the head stabilization device about two degrees of freedom including a first longitudinal axis of the head stabilization device and a second longitudinal axis of the joint assembly. The toothed rings of the head stabilization device can have multiple coupling locations to allow for a third degree of freedom for adjustment along the first longitudinal axis. A locking feature is coupled with the adapter to actuate the adapter and joint assembly for selective adjustment of the head stabilization device among the various degrees of freedom for adjustment.
