Abstract: A method of interactively navigating a user through a path of menu choices on a user interface may include displaying a current menu of choices on a first portion of a user interface display. The user interface allows for selecting of a menu item from the current menu of choices and to drill down through levels of menu choices based on selecting a menu item from a prior level of menu choices. A second portion of the user interface display presents past selected and past unselected menu items of the drilled-down levels. The past unselected menu items are displayed as selectable options. The user interface allows for jumping to a different path of menu choices by selecting a past unselected menu item from a previously navigated menu level displayed on the second portion of the user interface display.

Abstract: A multifunctional visualization instrument is provided that, in certain embodiments, includes a body having a proximal end and a distal end. The multifunctional visualization instrument includes a display screen on the body and a camera stick at the distal end of the body and comprising an arm and a camera. The arm of the camera stick is sized to fit within a channel of a removable laryngoscope blade. The multifunctional visualization instrument includes a port on a surface of the laryngoscope, configured to mate with an introducer and a steering input for steering the introducer, displayed on the display screen simultaneously with an image of the patient captured by the camera.

Abstract: Implementations described herein relate to various techniques for biasing interpretations of spoken utterances that are received in a vehicular environment. For example, implementations can receive a spoken utterance that includes a query from a user of a vehicle and obtain a corresponding vehicle sensor data instance generated by vehicle sensor(s) of the vehicle. Some implementations can determine to execute a search over only a first corpus of data, but not a second corpus of data, to obtain a given response to the query based on various criteria, including at least the query, the corresponding vehicle sensor data instance, a corresponding timestamp associated with the corresponding vehicle sensor data instance, and/or a corresponding duration of time the user has been associated with the vehicle. Additional, or alternative, implementations can execute a search over both the first and second corpora of data, and obtain the given response based on the criteria.

Abstract: A video laryngoscope including a display portion, a handle, and a camera assembly. The display portion includes a housing having a patient-facing side and a user-facing side. A display screen is disposed on the user-facing side and configured to display images captured by the camera assembly. An infrared window is disposed at another position on the video laryngoscope, such as on the patient-facing side of the housing. Infrared signals for pairing the video laryngoscope to other devices, such as monitors or external display screens, may be transmitted through the infrared window. For instance, an infrared receiver of the video laryngoscope may receive infrared signals through the infrared window and/or an infrared transmitter of the video laryngoscope may transmit infrared signals through the infrared window.

Abstract: A video laryngoscope system includes one or more wireless hubs.
