  • Publication number: 20250065529
    Abstract: A method for shredding a scrap skeleton produced as a machining product of separating machining of a plate-like workpiece and having a scrap skeleton main plane is provided. The method includes creating an incomplete joint having a course along a separating line running in a longitudinal direction. The scrap skeleton is machined for separation along the separating line. A breakable residual connection arranged along the separating line is established between a first scrap skeleton part and a second scrap skeleton part. The method further includes, after the incomplete joint is created, deflecting the first scrap skeleton part and the second scrap skeleton part relative to one another perpendicularly to the scrap skeleton main plane so that the residual connection between the first scrap skeleton part and the second scrap skeleton part breaks, thereby separating the first scrap skeleton part and the second scrap skeleton part from one another.

  • Publication number: 20250064412
    Abstract: In a method for operation of a docking arrangement, position information is determined that describes a position of the patient table, including detecting, sensor data corresponding to: the position of the patient table relative to the docking arrangement, and/or to an environment feature describing a movement trajectory to the docking arrangement. The method may further include performing, in response to a switchover condition indicative of a handover situation and a purely manual operation of the patient table by an operator, a switch into an assistance operating mode of the docking arrangement. In the assistance operating mode, at least one guidance measure may be determined for the patient table and a functional component of the patient table may be controlled to assist the operator.

  • Patent number: 12198376
    Abstract: Method for creating marker-based shared augmented reality (AR) session starts with initializing a shared AR session by a first device and by a second device. The first device displays on a display a marker. The second device detects the marker using a camera included in the second device and captures an image of the marker using the camera. The second device determines a transformation between the first device and the second device using the image of the marker. A common coordinate frame is then determined using the transformation, the shared AR session is generated using the common coordinate frame, and the shared AR session is caused to be displayed by the first device and by the second device. Other embodiments are described herein.
