Abstract: A surgery visualization system is described herein. The surgery visualization system includes a display monitor positioned in view of a surgeon and a support arm system including a first support arm and a second support arm. The first and second support arms are orientated such that the display monitor is visible to the surgeon between the first and second support arms. A 3D digital viewport coupled to the first support arm. A 3D digital microscope coupled to the second support arm. A computer system including a processor programmed to receive and process images from the 3D digital microscope and display the processed images on the 3D digital viewport and the display monitor.

Abstract: A compound is disclosed that has a metal coordination complex structure having at least two ligands coordinated to the metal; wherein the compound has a first substituent R1 at one of the ligands' periphery; wherein a first distance is defined as the distance between the metal and one of the atoms in R1 where that atom is the farthest away from the metal among the atoms in R1; wherein the first distance is also longer than any other atom-to-metal distance between the metal and any other atoms in the compound; and wherein when a sphere having a radius r is defined whose center is at the metal and the radius r is the smallest radius that will allow the sphere to enclose all atoms in the compound that are not part of R1, the first distance is longer than the radius r by at least 2.9 ?.

Abstract: A method, comprising: with a cutting graph corresponding to a two-dimensional (2-D) representation of a polyhedral mesh that is representative of the 3-D target object, forming i sheets in conformity with the cutting graph, i being from 1 to n, an i-th 2-D sheet having an i-th set of cuts formed therein, an (i+1)-th 2-D sheet having a (i+1)-th set of cuts formed therein, the (i+1)-th set of cuts optionally differing from the i-th set of cuts. A 3-D composite object having a surface, the 3-D composite object comprising: i stacked and consolidated sheets, i being from 1 to n, an i-th sheet having an i-th set of cuts formed therein, an (i+1)-th sheet having a (i+1)-th set of cuts formed therein, the (i+1)-th set of cuts optionally differing from the i-th set of cuts.

Abstract: A sports simulation robot for playing games and drills on a standard court or field during which the robot will simulate the competitive play of a human opponent with specific playing characteristics such as strategy, physicality, playing style and skill level.
