  • Instrumentation For Soft Tissue Reconstruction
    Publication number: 20210015600
    Abstract: The present disclosure includes, in one embodiment, a tensioner instrument having a body having a channel and a plurality of arms projecting outward from the body, each arm including a cleat having a slot adapted to receive a suture; a base member positioned within the channel of the body; an actuating mechanism having a first coupling member adapted to engage a second coupling member on the body to removeably couple the actuating mechanism to the body; and a universal joint adapted to allow for relative movement between the base member and the body such that, when each suture is positioned within each cleat and the actuating mechanism is actuated, the tensioner applies uniform tension to each suture positioned in each cleat.

  • Mobile face capture and image processing system and method
    Publication number: 20050083248
    Abstract: Image processing procedures include receiving at least two side view images of a face of a user. In other aspects, side view images are warped and blended into an output image of a face of a user as if viewed from a virtual point of view. In further aspects, a virtual video is produced in real time of output images from a video feed of side view images.
