  • Patent number: 11829526
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a processing system provides an augmented reality object for display by a head-mounted device (HMD) worn by a user. The processing system provides an augmented reality graphic for display by the HMD on a plane and overlaid on the augmented reality object. The processing system determines a gaze direction of the user using sensor data captured by a sensor of the HMD. Responsive to determining that the gaze direction intersects with the augmented reality graphic on the plane and remains intersecting for at least a period of time, the processing system determines a position of intersection between the gaze direction and the augmented reality graphic on the plane. The processing system provides a modified version of the augmented reality object for display by the HMD according to the position of intersection during the period of time.

  • Publication number: 20230341932
    Abstract: A processing system provides two-way communication between an electroanatomic navigation and mapping system (EAMS) and a head-mounted display (HMD). A user wearing the HMD can use hands-free or touch-free actions to interact with a user interface for EAMS information displayed by the HMD (e.g., 3D augmented reality graphics) or by a display monitor (e.g., 2D graphics). For example, the processing system updates the position of a cursor on the display monitor to track a gaze direction of the user as determined by the HMD.

  • Patent number: 11737700
    Abstract: In an embodiment, an electrogram (EGM) processing system provides, for display by a head-mounted display (HMD) worn by a user, a holographic rendering of intracardiac geometry. The HMD also displays an electrogram waveform. The EGM processing system determines a gaze direction of the user by processing sensor data from the HMD. The HMD displays a marker overlaid on the electrogram waveform at a location based on an intersection point between the gaze direction and the electrogram waveform. The EGM processing system determines a measurement of the electrogram waveform using the location of the marker. The HMD displays the measurement of the electrogram waveform.

  • Publication number: 20220354462
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a system receives data from a first electromagnetic sensor coupled to a head-mounted display (HMD) and detecting an electromagnetic field generated by an electromagnetic reference source coupled to an ultrasound probe. The system receives data from a second electromagnetic sensor coupled to a medical instrument and detecting the electromagnetic field. The system determines a position of the HMD relative to the ultrasound probe. The system determines a position of the medical instrument relative to the ultrasound probe. The system generates a visualization of a path of the medical instrument oriented relative to an ultrasound image plane. The system provides a graphic for display by the HMD to a user wearing the HMD, where the graphic includes the visualization and image data captured by the ultrasound probe displayed on the ultrasound image plane.
