Publication number: 20210169324Abstract: System and method for imaging a target site with a housing assembly having a head unit configured to be at least partially directed towards the target site. An optical coherence tomography (OCT) module and stereoscopic visualization camera are at least partially located in the head unit and configured to obtain a first set and a second of volumetric data of the target site, respectively. A controller is configured to register the first set of volumetric data with the second set of volumetric data to create a third set of registered volumetric data. The third set of registered volumetric data and second set of volumetric data are rendered, via a volumetric render module, to a first and second region. The first region and the second region are overlaid to obtain a composite shared view of the target.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2020Publication date: June 10, 2021Applicant: ALCON INC.Inventors: Ashok Burton Tripathi, George Charles Polchin, Maximiliano Ramirez Luna, Patrick Terry, Thomas Paul Riederer

Patent number: 10157545Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for flight guidance of an aircraft or other aerial vehicle using one or more lenticular arrays. An aircraft control application may be employed to determine whether a location of an aircraft is within a predefined distance of a lenticular array that defines an optimal flight corridor. If the aircraft is at a location within the predefined distance, the aircraft control application may attempt to visually locate the lenticular array using an imaging device. A position of the aircraft relative to the optimal flight corridor may be determined based at least in part on a visual identifier identified in a digital image of the lenticular array. A flight of the aircraft may be controlled to follow a flight path falling within the optimal flight corridor based at least in part on the visual identifier.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2014Date of Patent: December 18, 2018Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Patrick Terry Baker
