Abstract: Aiding diagnosis of errors in code based on a stack trace. Identifying target diagnostic information sources relevant to an obtained stack trace improves the efficiency and accuracy of the process of finding information for diagnosis of errors. This is achieved by analyzing the stack trace to identify stack trace elements and comparing the identified stack elements with diagnostic stack elements corresponding to diagnostic information sources from a database of diagnostic information sources.

Abstract: A robotic surgical tool includes a handle and an instrument driver releasably coupled to the handle, an elongate shaft extendable through the handle and the instrument driver, and a decoupler interposing the handle and the instrument driver. The decoupler includes an insertion assembly actuatable to move the shaft, an insertion transmission gear driven by the insertion assembly, and a dwell slip clutch including an input clutch gear and an output clutch gear, the dwell slip clutch being movable between collapsed and expanded states. A lockout ring extends about the decoupler housing, and a latch ring extends about the decoupler housing and is axially offset from the lockout ring. Fully retracting the shaft moves the dwell slip clutch to the compressed state to drive the output clutch gear against the lockout ring, thereby enabling latch ring to move to an unlocked position that separates the handle from the instrument driver.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed relating to a lens system that allows for simultaneous focus of near and far-away images with one pair of glasses, heads-up-displays (HUDs), and the like, without the need to move the user's eyes. This lens system may be used in a HUD application, for example, where the user may focus on a display lens that may be approximately one inch from the eye to view computer-generated information such as altitude, temperature, directions, and the like, and simultaneously view the individual's surroundings. The lens system may include a liquid lens that when modulated may vary from a near-focus state to a far-focus state rapidly by using an electrowetting or piezoelectric hydraulic actuator. This variable rate lens may be multiplexed at a rate that allows both near and far-away images to appear in focus simultaneously through the advantageous use of a user's persistence of vision.
