Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques for implementing an intelligent assistance (“IA”) or extended intelligence (“EI”) ecosystem for soft tissue luminal applications. In various embodiments, a computing system analyzes first layer input data (indicating movement, position, and/or relative distance for a person(s) and object(s) in a room) and second layer input data. The second layer input data includes sensor and/or imaging data of a patient. Based on the analysis, the computing system generates one or more recommendations for guiding a medical professional in navigating a surgical device(s) with respect to one or more soft tissue luminal portions of the patient. The recommendation(s) include at least one mapped guide toward, in, and/or around the one or more soft tissue luminal portions. The mapped guide can include data corresponding to at least three dimensions, e.g., a 3D image/video. The computing system can present the recommendation(s) as image-based output, using a user experience device.

Abstract: A system for assessing at least one characteristic of a device within a recipient is provided. The system includes a device removably insertable into the recipient where the device includes at least one of a treatment element and implant, and at least one wireless tag positioned within at least one portion of the device. The system includes a tracking device that includes processing circuitry configured to: if the device is inserted into the recipient, interrogate the at least one wireless tag positioned within at least one portion of the device; determine at least one characteristic of at least one portion of the device in three dimensional space based at least in part on the interrogation of the at least one wireless tag; and cause the at least one characteristic of the at least one portion of the device relative to the recipient to be indicated.

Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing intelligent assistance (“IA”) ecosystem. In various embodiments, a computing system might receive device data associated with a device(s) configured to perform a task(s), might receive sensor data associated with sensors configured to monitor at least one of biometric, biological, genetic, cellular, or procedure-related data of a subject, and might receive imaging data associated with an imaging device(s) configured to generate images of a portion(s) of the subject. The computing system might analyze the received device data, sensor data, and imaging data (collectively “received data”), might map two or more of the received data to a 3D or 4D representation of the portion(s) of the subject based on the analysis, might generate and present (using a user experience (“UX”) device) one or more extended reality (“XR”) images or experiences based on the mapping.
