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: A method and apparatus for gaze-based communications. A gaze of a user is detected being directed at an element in a graphical user interface. The graphical user interface is displayed on a display system located in an environment. A state of the element is changed in response to detecting that the gaze is directed at the element. Audio information is received through an audio input device. An output operation is controlled based on the state of the element such that the audio information received through the audio input device is directed to an information conveyor corresponding to the element.

Abstract: A robotic system comprises a robotic assembly comprising a drive mechanism, a sensor assembly, and a controller communicatively coupled to the sensor assembly. The controller has at least one processor configured to execute a method. The method comprises recording a position of the drive mechanism to non-volatile memory during use of the robotic assembly and receiving a request to initiate a mid-procedure restart of the robotic assembly after a mid-procedure shut-down of the robotic assembly. The method also comprises determining whether a post-shutdown position of the drive mechanism is within an accepted tolerance with respect to a pre-shutdown position of the drive mechanism and preventing further use of the robotic assembly in response to a determination that the post-shutdown position of the drive mechanism is not within the accepted tolerance with respect to the pre-shutdown position of the drive mechanism.

Abstract: A teleoperational surgical system comprises an operator input system and a teleoperational manipulator configured for operation by the operator input system. The teleoperational manipulator is coupled to a medical instrument in a surgical environment. The teleoperational surgical system also includes a processing unit including one or more processors. The processing unit is configured to recognize a voice communication, evaluate the voice communication in the context of a plurality of surgical environment state variables, determine a response to the voice communication based on at least one of the plurality of surgical environment state variables, and provide a command to implement the response.

Abstract: A telesurgery system having a surgical assembly with a motor and a surgical instrument. The surgical assembly has at least one drive mechanism driven by the motor. A sensor assembly is coupled to non-volatile memory, and is for recording position of the at least one rotatable mechanism to the non-volatile memory. A controller is communicatively coupled to the sensor assembly. The controller a processor configured to execute a method. In the method, rotational position of the a drive mechanism is recorded to the non-volatile memory during use of the surgical assembly. A mid-procedure shut-down of the surgical assembly is then initiated. A request is then received to initiate a mid-procedure restart of the surgical assembly. It is then determined whether a post-shutdown position of the drive mechanism is within an accepted tolerance with respect to a pre-shutdown position to allow the mid-procedure restart to complete.
