  • Publication number: 20140039353
    Abstract: A computer-executable method and an apparatus for analyzing biomechanical movement of an animal/human are used to detect and improve motion deficiencies being exhibited by the animal/human. The apparatus portion includes motion capture sensors, which are attached to a user's clothing or are directly adhered to the user's skin. The motion capture sensors are appropriately positioned across the user's body so that the computer-executable method is able to retrieve data for the user's full range of motion. From the data, the computer-executable method analyzes different physical movements, which include but not limited to sports skills and fitness exercises. The computer-executable method compares the data to an ideal version of a physical movement. The computer-executable method is also able to use the analysis of the data in order to create a performance report to illustrate the user's flaws while performing the physical movement and to suggest corrective drills.

  • Patent number: 5814010
    Abstract: An irrigation and aspiration handpiece tip for enabling safe vacuuming and polishing of a capsule generally includes an aspiration tube for removal of tissue from an eye which in vacuum communication with a first vacuum port applies vacuum within an eye in order to remove tissue therefrom. The aspiration tube also includes a second vacuum port for controlling vacuum pressure within the vacuum tube, with the first vacuum port and the second vacuum port being disposed in the aspiration tube in a spaced-apart angular relationship with one another. In addition, an irrigation tube is provided for introducing irrigation fluid in order to flush tissue towards the first vacuum port.
