Abstract: An air valve assembly includes a housing defining an internal channel configured to receive a first member, the first member is fluidly connected to an air source, a plunger member positioned in the internal channel and configured to slide relative to the housing, a biasing member positioned in the internal channel and configured to apply a biasing force onto the plunger member, and a sealing member positioned in the internal channel and defining a first inflation aperture, the plunger member slidably received by the first inflation aperture. In a first inflation configuration, the first member is configured to form a magnetic connection with the sealing member and contact the plunger member to overcome the biasing force, the plunger member is configured to responsively slide relative to the first inflation aperture to facilitate a flow of air between the sealing member and the plunger member.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, apparatuses and techniques for replicating data between different cloud computing platforms. Examples include storage replicator components operable in different cloud computing platforms. The first storage replicator component may identify the second cloud computing platform as a location to copy a data file in response to an event related to the data file stored in a first cloud computing platform. The first storage replicator component may request a copy of the data file via an application programming interface of the first cloud computing platform. The attributes of the copy of the data file which involve modification to conform to data management conventions of the second cloud computing platform may be determined and modified to comply with conventions of the second cloud computing platform. The modified copy of the data file may be forwarded to the second cloud computing platform for storage.

Abstract: An orthopaedic surgical simulator includes a bone (a simulated bone or cadaver bone). The simulator further includes a base, wherein the bone is operatively connected to the base, an optical system mounted proximate the base, wherein the optical system comprises at least one camera and provides a first view and a second view of an incision area associated with the bone. There are fiducial markers on a surgical wire to represent depth of the surgical wire when a tip of the surgical wire is not visible. The simulator further includes a computing device in operative communication with the camera and configured to track position of a surgical wire by determining position of the surgical wire using the fiducial markers on the surgical wire and to generate imagery based on a three-dimensional model of the bone and position of the surgical wire relative to the bone.
