Method for adjusting control commands for moving medical camera
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11992284B2) discloses a computer-implemented method for adjusting control commands to move an imaging device connected to a moving device. The method involves acquiring image data of a structure, intended motion data based on control commands, and actual motion data after the device has moved. By analyzing these data, correction data is determined to adjust the control command to achieve the intended motion and compensate for any deviations between the actual and intended positions of the imaging device. The correction data is used to generate a corrected control command to be sent to the moving device, ensuring precise movement of the imaging device.
Furthermore, the patent includes details on correlating intended and actual motion data in a common coordinate system, acquiring motion data based on user or automatic control commands, and determining correction data for every control command received. The method also involves controlling a display device to reflect the intended motion accurately and applying plausibility checks to ensure reasonable corrections within set limits. Additionally, the patent covers aspects like correction verification based on image data and provides for a program logic stored in a computer memory or a system comprising a computer and a moving device to execute the method. Overall, the patented technology aims to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of adjusting control commands for moving imaging devices, particularly in medical or industrial settings where precise positioning is crucial.
