Abstract: Provided herein is an adaptor for modifying the operation of a surgical bone-tool, comprising: a housing having a distal end and a proximal end coupled between a chuck and an operating bit of said tool, such that force generated by a motor of the tool is delivered to the operating bit through the adaptor; a clutch, contained in the housing, having an engaged and a disengaged configurations, respectively interconnecting and disconnecting the chuck to the operating bit; the clutch automatically disengages in response to an electric current, causing a cutoff of the force delivery; wherein the housing comprises a proximal fastener, sized and shaped to connect with the operating bit and a distal fastener, sized and shaped to connect with the chuck.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for monitoring the interaction of a surgical tool with a patient's bone, comprising interacting a surgical tool with a proximal bone region; detecting at least one signal emanating from the bone following the surgical tool interaction with the bone region; and identifying based on the signal an interaction progression of the surgical tool relative to the bone.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for concurrently converting multiple video and audio formats and sources into different formats. The main elements of the system are: a. A Media Format Matrix (MFM) module, having multiple input and output channels. b. A Communicator module, having various network interfaces. c. A Storage module. The implementation of the system is based on standard networking protocols, used to transfer the data between the internal MFM, Communicator and storage elements. The system platform is built around an internal switched network infrastructure. The management architecture provides a scalable infrastructure for controlling and monitoring single or multiple internal and external system modules, and in addition single, multiple or clusters of systems.
