Abstract: A system comprises a display configured to present a graphical user interface including a viewing area and one or more user interface elements. The system also comprises a gaze tracking device configured to detect a change in a gaze of a user while the user views the graphical user interface presented on the display. The system also comprises an audio input device configured to receive audio information. The system also comprises one or more processors configured to process the audio information received at the audio input device in accordance with a first mode to direct the received audio information as audio output to one or more audio output devices; and in response to the gaze tracking device detecting the change in the gaze of the user, process the received audio information in accordance with a second mode, the second mode being distinct from the first mode.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a controller coupled to a stereoscopic image viewer. The stereoscopic image viewer includes a viewing lens, an image capture unit, and a plurality of light sources. The image capture unit is configured to capture image frames. The controller receives the captured image frames. The controller is configured to switch light output from one of the plurality of light sources to another one of the plurality of light sources if a corneal reflection in a captured image frame intersects a fixed reflection in the captured image frame.

Abstract: A system comprises a teleoperational assembly including an operator control system and a first teleoperational manipulator configured for operation by an operator control device of the operator control system. The first teleoperational manipulator is configured to control the operation of a first medical instrument in a surgical environment. The system also comprises a processing unit including one or more processors. The processing unit is configured to display an image of a field of view of the surgical environment and display a menu proximate to an image of the first medical instrument in the image of the field of view. The menu includes at least one icon representing a function for the first medical instrument.

Abstract: An exemplary image viewing system includes a display device configured to emit visible light representative of an image provided for display by the image viewing system, an infrared light source configured to emit infrared light, a viewing lens, and a black glass mirror provided between the infrared light source and the viewing lens. The black glass mirror comprises black glass and a coating on an outer surface of the black glass. The coating is configured to reflect a first portion of the visible light emitted from the display device towards the viewing lens, pass a second portion of the visible light emitted from the display device to the black glass, and pass a portion of the infrared light emitted from the infrared light source toward the viewing lens. The black glass is configured to pass the portion of the infrared light and absorb the second portion of the visible light.
