  • Publication number: 20240125927
    Abstract: Systems and methods for network-based ultrasound imaging are provided, which can include a number of features. In some embodiments, an ultrasound imaging system images an object with three-dimensional unfocused pings and obtains digital sample sets from a plurality of receiver elements. A sub-set of the digital sample sets can be electronically transferred to a remote server, where the sub-set can be beamformed to produce a series of two-dimensional image frames. A video stream made up of the series of two-dimensional images frames can then be transferred from the remote server to a display device.

  • Patent number: 6883632
    Abstract: An input device (such as a rotational hand crank) receives a constantly-applied motion, and outputs a signal to a controller which, in turn, sends an appropriate signal to an electric motor, which is connected to the chair via a mechanical transmission. The wheel is removably mounted in front of a wheelchair such that the front wheels of the chair are lifted above the ground. The device is generally steered manually, such as by pivoting an input device to one side.
