| 20120064288 | SHOCK ABSORBING STRUCTURE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A shock absorbing structure having a high shock absorption characteristic is provided. The shock absorbing structure includes a solidified portion and a sintered portion. The solidified portion is formed by dissolving and solidifying a plurality of inorganic powder particles. The sintered portion is formed by sintering a plurality of the inorganic powder particles. The sintered portion is connected to the solidified portion. The shock absorbing structure is a composite structure including the solidified portion and the sintered portion and therefore has a high shock absorption characteristic. | 03-15-2012 |
| 20110306985 | Surgical Assistance System - A surgical assistance system for operating on biological tissue using a surgical tool attached to an arm of an automatically-controlled surgical instrument so that an optimal feed rate of the tool is calculated and outputted to the surgical instrument, the system including: a device for storing and voxelizing medical image data obtained from a biological tissue subject to surgery; a device for setting an operative location based on the shape of the biological tissue; a device for calculating a tool path along which the tool travels to perform surgery at an operative location; a device for determining the region of interference between the tool and the voxels; a device for determining the hardness of the biological tissue in the interference region; a device for calculating an optimal tool feed rate corresponding to the hardness; and a device for outputting the feed rate obtained by the calculations to the surgical instrument. | 12-15-2011 |
