Abstract: A tray engine includes a vertical drive column, a rotation mechanism for rotating the vertical drive column, and an end effector attached to the vertical drive column. The end effector includes an end effector base attached to the vertical drive column. The end effector further includes a slide attached to the end effector base to support a tray, when present. The slide enables the tray to slide along a length of the end effector base. The tray engine includes a drive mechanism attached to the end effector base for moving along the length of the end effector base to enable the tray, when present, to slide linearly along the length and load or unload the tray to or from the slide.

Abstract: An end effector for transferring a tray is described. The end effector includes an end effector base attached to a vertical drive column of a tray engine. The end effector further includes a slide having multiple arms that are attached to the end effector base to support the tray, when present. The arms of the slide enable the tray to slide along a length of the end effector base. The arms face each other and extend along the length of the end effector base.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of ranking and presenting evaluation criteria for medical treatment options, including: populating, by a computer processor, a database with a score set for each of a plurality of treatment options, the score set including a plurality of outcome characteristic scores; transmitting, by the computer processor, first display instructions that when implemented results in a plurality of graphical score displays and a plurality of treatment option displays, wherein each graphical score display having a plurality of indicia having an indication that reflects: i) one of the score sets and ii) the plurality of outcome characteristic scores included in the score set, the instructions further causing each graphical score display to display proximate one of the treatment option displays such that a user associates the graphical score display with the treatment option display.
