Abstract: A method and apparatus for operating a device by controlling the device based on input received from group members, uses a sensor for monitoring each group member for detecting an instruction provided by a group member. The instruction includes a visual or audible instruction. Upon detecting, a controller associates a control command with the instruction. The controller provides the control command to the device. For establishing the group, an authentication is performed for adding a user as a group member. For identifying the control command, the detected instruction is associated with the instructing group member, where the member profile is accessed from a memory including a set of reference instructions, and the instruction is matched with a reference instruction selected from the set of reference instructions in the profile.

Abstract: Disclosed is an ultrasound imaging guidance system (20) for guiding an operator of an ultrasound imaging system (10) comprising an ultrasound probe (11), the ultrasound imaging guidance system comprising a transceiver (23) adapted to receive target ultrasound probe pose information generated by a remote ultrasound imaging support system (30), said target ultrasound probe pose information being derived from a data stream transmitted to the remote ultrasound imaging support system, said data stream including a sequence of ultrasound images (15) generated with the ultrasound probe and an indication for each ultrasound image of the actual pose (16) of the ultrasound probe when capturing said ultrasound image; a processor (21) communicatively coupled to the transceiver and programmed to generate a virtual image (17) of the ultrasound probe in a pose corresponding to the target ultrasound probe pose information; and a display device (25) communicatively coupled to the processor and adapted to display the virtual image. Also disclosed are an ultrasound imaging support system (30) and associated methods and computer program products.
