  • Patent number: 11948226
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for clinical workspace simulation includes capturing a real-world environment by an imaging device of an augmented reality headset and generating a composite view by rendering a first virtual object relative to a surgical table in the real-world environment. Captured real-world environment and the rendered first virtual object are combined in the composite view, which is displayed on a display of the augmented reality headset worn by a user.

  • Publication number: 20230181267
    Abstract: A surgical robotic system includes surgeon console having a user input device configured to generate a user input for controlling a simulated instrument, a primary display configured to display a graphical surgical simulation including a simulated instrument, and a secondary display configured to display a graphical user interface providing exchange of the simulated instrument. The system also includes a training simulation computing device operably coupled to the surgeon console having a master controller configured to receive input positions from the user input device and to output a drive command for the simulated instrument, and a simulation controller configured to simulate the simulated instrument.

  • Patent number: 6434850
    Abstract: An instrument for measuring the apical angle of a countersink (3). A jig (5) positions a probe (8) with preferably three branches (11) that rest against the inner surface of the countersink. A contact lever (12) pivots on at least one branch, and rests axially inside the countersink. A dial (13) communicates with the contact lever by way of a sensor (14). The sensor rests against the contact lever remote from the articulation (15) between the lever and the branches.
