Abstract: A haptic operator control device in a motor vehicle, comprises an input unit, wherein the input unit can be moved by an actuator unit coupled to the input unit, wherein the input unit has a surface, wherein the surface can be touched by an input member of an operator, wherein the input unit and the actuator unit are movably mounted in relation to the motor vehicle.

Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure may include a method for providing access within a patient that may include inserting a medical device through an opening of the patient. The medical device may include an overtube having a lumen and a slot and an elongate member disposed within the lumen of the overtube, wherein the elongate member may include an expandable member configured to expand and collapse. The method may further include positioning the medical device proximate a site in the patient, positioning the overtube relative to the elongate member such that a portion of the expandable member faces the slot, and the slot faces the site, and expanding the portion of the expandable member out of the slot and toward the site.

Abstract: In one embodiment, an implant includes a body member and an extension member. The body member is formed of a first material and has a first side portion and a second side portion. The extension member is formed of a second material different than the first material. The extension member has a first arm portion, a second arm portion, and a mid-portion disposed between the first arm portion and the second arm portion. The mid-portion extends from the first side portion of the body member to the second side portion of the body member. The first arm portion extends from the first side portion of the body member along a first axis. The second arm portion extends from the second side portion of the body member along a second axis different than the first axis.

Abstract: A system can comprise a memory for storing machine readable instructions and a processing unit for accessing the memory and executing the machine readable instructions. The machine readable instructions can comprise an automation client to facilitate managing media operations. The automation client can comprise a graphical user interface (GUI) generator to provide a GUI. The GUI can concurrently provide a plurality of modes of operation for a plurality of playlists in a graphical framework.
