  • Publication number: 20230184804
    Abstract: Systems and methods provide for detection and controlled interaction with one or more objects. The system can include an imaging subsystem (20), a tool subsystem (26) containing one or more tools, a stage subsystem (16) and a control system (40). The control system (40) can integrate controls for each of the other subsystems, which controls can be implement desired functions over a variety of process parameters to perform the controlled interaction.

  • Patent number: 10918442
    Abstract: A glenoid component includes a laterally facing bearing surface configured to engage a bearing surface of an element associated with a humerus, and a stem portion extending medially away from the bearing surface. The stem portion is configured such that when implanted in a scapula the stem portion includes three cross-sections parallel to a medial lateral plane. The middle cross-section has a length in the medial-lateral direction which is shorter than the lengths of the other two cross-sections in the medial lateral direction.

  • Patent number: 8068670
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for performing image analysis. A computer-implemented method for analyzing images may include quantitatively analyzing image data to identify image objects relative to a background portion of the image according to predefined object criteria, the image data including a plurality of image objects that represent objects in a sample distributed across a substrate. The identified image objects are further clustered into groups or colonies of the identified image objects according to predetermined clustering criteria.
