Method and Platform for Portable Remote Support During Medical Device Implantation Using Augmented Reality Devices - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240024065 titled 'Method and Platform for Portable Remote Support During Medical Device Implantation Using Augmented Reality Devices

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a framework for medical and surgical support that allows remote guidance for implantations of medical devices during procedures. It incorporates video conferencing technology to enable product support specialists to provide real-time support to medical personnel in an operating facility. The framework utilizes augmented reality-enabled display devices to facilitate communication between the specialists and the medical personnel. It also includes secure communication capabilities and hardware components/software elements for gesture detection and interpretation. Additionally, the framework allows for tracking, monitoring, and verification of instruments and devices before, during, and after medical procedures using image processing techniques for object detection and recognition.

  • Enables remote guidance for implantations of medical devices during procedures
  • Integrates video conferencing technology for interactive collaboration sessions
  • Allows product support specialists to provide real-time support to medical personnel
  • Utilizes augmented reality-enabled display devices for communication
  • Ensures sterile environments and protects the health and safety of participants
  • Includes secure communication capabilities for medical personnel and specialists
  • Incorporates hardware components and software elements for gesture detection and interpretation
  • Enables tracking, monitoring, and verification of instruments and devices
  • Uses image processing techniques for object detection and recognition

Potential Applications:

  • Remote guidance for medical device implantations
  • Real-time support for medical personnel during procedures
  • Interactive collaboration between specialists and medical personnel
  • Ensuring sterile environments in operating facilities

Problems Solved:

  • Limited access to product support specialists during medical procedures
  • Difficulty in maintaining sterile environments during collaboration sessions
