  • Patent number: 12254166
    Abstract: A controller is configured to control an image displayed on a touch-operable display. The controller includes a processor that executes a program to control the image to display a first object and a second object such that at least a part of the second object is displayed as overlapping the first object. The processor detects a start trigger indicating that a user has started scrolling to the left or right on the display, and increases a relative position between a first object and a second object at a prescribed acceleration with a passage of time from detection of the start trigger. The processor detects a stop trigger indicating that the user has stopped scrolling, and reduces the relative position between the first object and the second object at a prescribed deceleration with a passage of time from detection of the detected stop trigger.

  • Publication number: 20240241630
    Abstract: A display control apparatus includes a display having a plurality of buttons arranged on a side, and a controller that controls images displayed on the display. Upon detecting an operation of a first button by a user, the controller causes a transition to a first image from a second image. The first image is associated with the first button and is different from the second image. The second image is associated with a second button that had been displayed on the display before the operation was performed. The controller executes a rendering process during the transition. Rendering processes include appearance rendering, in which the first image is moved to a center of the display from a direction of a position of the first button, and disappearance rendering, in which the second image is cleared from the display. The appearance rendering is executed after the disappearance rendering.

  • Publication number: 20230172662
    Abstract: An exemplary robotic system and control method is disclosed that employs magnetic-resonance imaging (MRI) guided visual-servo positioning of a medical robot system. In an example, an MR Elastography (MRE) actuator system is disclosed that employs the exemplary MRI-guided visual servoing to assess tissues based on its mechanical properties. The exemplary MRI-guided positioning is directly and solely used as a feedback sensor through its visual output to control multiple degrees of movement of the MRE actuators. The exemplary MRI-guided positioning may be employed in various diagnostics, minimally invasive surgery, or medical procedures for any number of a medical instrument and interventional procedures that can be conducted in an MRI environment or in proximity to an MRI scanner.
