Abstract: A vibratory dosing system 16 with a dosing chute 24 having a first dosing mechanism 16A and a second dosing mechanism 16B, each dosing mechanism 16A, 16B with a first end 41 proximate a hopper 12 and a second end 43 of each dosing mechanism 16A, 16B is proximate an exit chute 24. One or both dosing chutes may have a ramp 17 portion. A vibratory driver is coupled proximate the second end 43 of one or both dosing mechanisms 16A, 16B and is configured to vertically move the second end 43 of one or both dosing mechanisms 16A, 16B to vibrate one or both dosing mechanisms 16A, 16B; and elastic attachment mechanisms 29 provide an asymmetric suspension for the dosing system 16 to reduce vibratory coupling between the first and second dosing mechanisms 16A, 16B. The dosing system 16 may be provided in operable connection with or otherwise coupled to a hopper 12 and scale 18 for measuring and dispensing a precise pre-selected weight of coffee beans.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for functional brain mapping using neuronavigational equipment and additional features. For example, some implementations described combine novel cortical stimulator tools with stereotactic navigation for three-dimensional position tracking of the cortical stimulator tools. In some implementations, the systems and methods described herein can be used on an awake patient. In some implementations, the systems and methods described herein can be used on a patient that is asleep, via motor evoked potentials (MEPs), phase reversal, or electromyography (EMG) monitoring. Accordingly, in some cases sensory and language regions of the brain can be identified in addition to motor regions.
