    摘要: A collision prevention system for a surgical suite includes a supply unit adjustable along a movement path from an initial position to a subsequent position within the surgical suite. A sensor is operably coupled to the supply unit. The sensor is configured to sense an object proximate to the supply unit. A controller is communicatively coupled with the sensor. The controller monitors the object sensed by the sensor. An alert device is communicatively coupled with the controller. The alert device provides a notification when the object is sensed within the movement path and provides a prevention indicator corresponding to an alternate path.

    摘要: An accessory detection apparatus for a modular medical device includes a support portion and at least one support accessory in connection with the support portion via a connection interface. The connection interface is configured to support the at least one support accessory extending from the support portion. The accessory detection apparatus includes at least one detection device in connection with a first portion of the connection interface and at least one identifier element in connection with a second portion of the connection interface. The apparatus further includes a controller in communication with the at least one detection device. The controller is configured to process at least one signal communicated from the at least one detection device and detect an identifier of at least one support accessory in response to the at least one signal.
