  • Patent number: 12268607
    Abstract: Provided is a surgical method. The method includes detecting a location of a reference unit having a trackable element with a detector, the detector configured to provide at least one signal corresponding to a detected location of at least the reference unit's trackable element; accessing a computer-readable reconstruction of the being's anatomy; accessing a computer-readable reconstruction of an implant; detecting a location of a pointer tool comprising a trackable element with the detector, where the pointer tool is associated with a location of an anatomical feature of interest; accessing at least one computer-readable reconstruction of a trace, the trace corresponding to a geometry of the anatomical feature of interest; and superimposing the at least one updatable, computer-readable trace on the second computer-readable reconstruction of the implant.

  • Patent number: 12080191
    Abstract: A food safety device for limiting cross contamination and preventing food borne illnesses. The food safety device is attachable and securable to a rim of a food holding or storage container on an edge or corner of the food storage or holding container. A flexible body is designed to fit over and frictionally engage the rim of the food storage container. The flexible body may secure to a corner or a side of the food storage or holding container. A labeling component allows food preparers and consumers to readily identify the stored foods and the ingredients. The labeling component may be pre-labeled, color coded, or adjustable.

  • Patent number: 12070661
    Abstract: A golf club head having a laser-generated features to create contrast on the club face of the golf club head. The club face includes a central region, a toe region, and a heel region. The central region includes a first plurality of laser-generated features that provide a height-intersection coverage of the central region, a width-intersection coverage of the central region, and a surface-area coverage of the central region. The toe region includes a second plurality of laser-generated features that provide a height-intersection coverage of the toe region, a width-intersection coverage of the toe region, and a surface-area coverage of the toe region. The heel region includes a third plurality of laser-generated features that provide a height-intersection coverage of the heel region, a width-intersection coverage of the heel region, and a surface-area coverage of the heel region.
