Abstract: An electronic device includes a device housing and a blade assembly carrying a blade and slidably coupled to the device housing. The electronic device includes a translation mechanism operable to slide the blade assembly relative to the device housing. The electronic device includes one or more processors operable with the translation mechanism. The one or more processors automatically transition the blade assembly to the peek position when a front-facing imager or front-facing loudspeaker is required unless a privacy mode of operation is enabled, wherein transition of the blade assembly to the peek position is precluded.

Abstract: An isolation enclosure is provided for isolating a person to an area about a bed, wherein the bed is adapted to support the person and includes a frame and a mattress overlying the frame. The isolation enclosure comprises a frame adapted to surround the bed; and a canopy connectable to the frame and defining an isolation chamber sealed with respect to the ambient atmosphere. The isolation chamber extends over the frame of the bed and is sufficiently large to allow a person located within the isolation chamber to be supported on the bed and to move freely within the isolation chamber. The canopy includes a base wall adapted to either (i) overly the mattress of the bed, and (ii) lie between the mattress and the frame of the bed. A frame transport device, such as wheels, casters, or sliders, is mounted on the frame and adapted to transport the frame and canopy in cooperation with the bed to thereby transport a patient supported on the bed and located within the isolation chamber.

Abstract: A collapsible enclosure for restraining a patient to an area about a bed comprises a frame having a horizontal eave portion, a horizontal base portion opposing the horizontal cave portion, and at least two vertical members upstanding from the horizontal base portion for supporting the horizontal cave portion. The frame collapses as an integral unit for storage and transfer. A canopy secured to the frame defines an area about a bed such that a patient is allowed to move freely within the area. The canopy includes see-through portions defined by dark colored mesh to enhance visibility therethrough and prevent glare. In one embodiment, the canopy includes a hermetically sealable chamber defining the patient area for quarantining the patient therein.
