  • Publication number: 20250114155
    Abstract: A robotic surgical system includes an instrument cart having a setup arm assembly and a control drive assembly coupled to the setup arm assembly. The control drive assembly includes a chassis assembly, a first drive unit and a second drive unit mounted to the chassis assembly, and a leadscrew assembly. Each drive unit is positioned to translate relative to the chassis assembly between a retracted position and an advanced position. The first drive unit couples to a first surgical instrument and the second drive unit couples to a second surgical instrument. The leadscrew assembly is mounted to the chassis assembly and includes a first leadscrew operably associated with the first drive unit and a second leadscrew operably associated with the second drive unit. The first leadscrew rotates to cause the first drive unit to translate relative to the chassis assembly. The second leadscrew rotates to cause the second drive unit to translate relative to the chassis assembly.

  • Patent number: 11573773
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for improvements to model development, particularly in terms of source code commitments for these models. For example, methods and systems allow contributors to manage when and where commitments and/or the results of those commitments are stored and/or do so without the use of an additional layer of external software by correlating source code commitments and model result records during model development. Moreover, the methods and systems allow contributors to manage when and where commitments are store automatically without the use of an additional layer of external software through user of native source code commands and libraries.

  • Patent number: 9086281
    Abstract: Techniques are described for determining a direction in which a computing device is being transported by a user who is walking, running, or otherwise moving relative to a direction in which the device is being held. Acceleration data may be collected by accelerometers of the device during a time window, and transformed to determine a rotated acceleration along one or more candidate directions. The rotated acceleration is transformed to a frequency domain, and a peak power is determined within the frequency transformed acceleration data for each candidate direction. The peak powers are compared across multiple candidate directions, and the candidate direction having a higher peak power may be designated as a movement direction of the device relative to the device orientation. A gross movement direction may be determined based on magnetometer data, and may be employed for navigation or other applications.
