Abstract: A position is determined for each fiducial marker of a plurality of fiducial markers in an image volume. Based on the determined positions, a position and orientation of the registration fixture with respect to the anatomical feature is determined. A position is determined for each tracked marker of a first plurality of tracked markers on the registration fixture and a second plurality of tracked markers on the robot arm in a tracking data frame. Based on the determined positions of tracked markers, a position and orientation of the registration fixture and the robot arm of a surgical robot with respect to the tracking space are determined.

Abstract: Various embodiments of a stereotactic coordinate adjuster system and associated method for positional adjustment of components of a stereotactic system are disclosed herein. The system provides fine adjustment to the stereotactic system by providing form-fitting components that encapsulate components of the stereotactic system and allow for fine positional adjustment of an arc support member and a slide portion of the stereotactic system.

Abstract: A drill guide fixture may be configured to prepare a skull for attachment of a cranial insertion fixture. The drill guide fixture may include a central drill guide and a bone anchor guide at a base of the drill guide fixture. The central drill guide may define a central drill guide hole therethrough, wherein the central drill guide hole has a first opening at a base of the drill guide fixture and a second opening spaced apart from the base of the drill guide fixture. The bone anchor drill guide may define a bone anchor drill guide hole therethrough, and the bone anchor drill guide hole may be offset from the central drill guide hole in a direction that is perpendicular with respect to a direction of the central drill guide hole. Related cranial insertion fixtures, robotic systems, and methods are also discussed.

Abstract: A flexible and adjustable harness used by drivers of cranes and earth moving equipment is disclosed. In its preferred embodiment, the flexible and adjustable harness is used when it is necessary for a driver of a crane or an earth moving equipment to lean over to view objects such as loads and obstacles directly below his or her seat. The flexible and adjustable harness includes a flexible slip-on portion that easily slips onto the driver seat. The harness also includes a flexible right wrap and a flexible left wrap which enclose the driver's abdominal and chest areas and bear the weight of the driver when he or she leans over to view loads or obstacles under his or her seat. The flexible and adjustable harness also comprises left and right wrap elastic safety bands that add to the protection and safety provided by the left and right wraps. The flexible and adjustable harness further includes back side left and right safety bands to safely secure the harness' slip-on portion to the driver seat.
