摘要： A device configured to provide a faster and more accurate measurement of depths of holes for placement of bone screws and fastener for bone implant fixation procedures. The device includes a combination of a bone probe for physical examination of a hole drilled in a bone and a depth gauge member for determining a depth of the hole and providing digital measurement of the depth via a display on the instrument and/or via a wireless exchange of measurement data to a remote computing device, such as a tablet or smartphone. The device may further be connected to a separate neuromonitoring device and be used for nerve sensing and/or nerve stimulation by way of the bone probe. For example, the bone probe may include a conductive material such that the distal probe tip acts as an extension of the neuromonitoring device and may be used to sense and/or stimulate nerves.

摘要： A portable coordinate measurement machine (CMM) includes an articulated arm including rotary joints. At least one of the rotary joints includes bearings; a shaft that engages an inner diameter of the bearings, the shaft configured to rotate about an axis of rotation of the bearings; a housing having at least one port that engages an outer diameter of at least one of the bearings; and at least one transducer configured to output an angle signal corresponding to an angle of rotation of the shaft relative to the housing about the axis of rotation. Structural portions of the CMM are fabricated from steel, stainless steel, or alloys lighter in weight than steel but having a thermal expansion coefficient matching that of steel.

摘要： A power supply and signal transmitting device for a sensing bolt and sensing bolt device is provided. The power supply and signal transmitting device, which is applied to the sensing bolt including a first contact set, includes a cap module and a supply module. The cap module caps one end of the sensing bolt and includes a cap circuit board module. A second contact set of the cap circuit board module contacts the first contact set for electrically connecting the sensing bolt. The supply module is interposed into the cap module for supplying an external power to the sensing bolt or accessing the io data stored in the sensing bolt by electrically connecting a third contact set of the cap circuit board module with a fourth contact set of the supply module. Thereby, the power duration of the sensing bolt may be improved.

摘要： A power transmission apparatus oscillates alternating current power at a first frequency (f1) which is lower than a resonant frequency (fr) of the second resonator and at a second frequency (f2) which is higher than the resonant frequency (fr). The power transmission apparatus measures an inductance value Lin (f1) and an inductance value Lin (f2). The inductance value Lin (f1) is measured when the oscillation circuit oscillates alternating current power at the first frequency (f1), and the inductance value Lin (f2) is measured when the oscillation circuit oscillates alternating current power at the second frequency (f2). The power transmission apparatus calculates a coupling coefficient k by using an expression represented by k2=1−Lin(f2)/Lin(f1), to detect relative position of the second resonator to the first resonator on the basis of the coupling coefficient k.

摘要： A method for registering a patient using image data of a medical imaging device in a surgical navigation system, including the following: positioning a mobile scanning unit including a light source, in particular including a laser light source, in a first position, so that a light beam of the light source is directed onto a point of incidence on the skin surface of the patient, detecting the position of the scanning unit using a detection device in a detection device coordinate system, alternately deflecting the light beam with a micro-mirror and measuring a distance between the mobile scanning unit and the point of incidence, so that distances to different points of incidence are measured in succession, ascertaining a mapping between the detection device coordinate system and an image data coordinate system of the image data based on the measured distances and the detected position of the scanning unit.

摘要： A capacitive touch sensor wherein the touch sensitive panel has drive electrodes arranged on the lower side of a substrate and sense electrodes arranged on the upper side. The drive electrodes are shaped and dimensioned to substantially entirely cover the touch sensitive area with individual drive electrodes being separated from each other by small gaps, the gaps being so small as to be practically invisible. The near blanket coverage by the drive electrodes also serves to screen out interference from noise sources below the drive electrode layer, such as drive signals for an underlying display, thereby suppressing noise pick-up by the sense electrodes that are positioned above the drive electrodes.

摘要： A measuring wheel for determining a ground-traverse distance while operated by a user. The measuring wheel comprising a wheel, a ground-traverse element, a processing element, a memory element, a communications element, and a handle. The wheel has a known radius and is rotatably secured to the ground-traverse element. The ground-traverse element is configured for determining the ground-traverse distance by measuring rotation of the wheel. The processing element, the memory element, and the communications element are located within a central housing of the measuring wheel for receiving and wirelessly communicating information indicative of the ground-traverse distance to an external computing device. The handle is secured to a housing of the ground-traverse element and is configured to be grasped by the user during operation to move the wheel.
