摘要
从发明人提供的背景信息中,新闻记者获得了以下引文:“对于使用耳机的设备,其性能通过保持相对于用户头部的稳定而优化(例如,光学L设备、虚拟现实耳机、外科设备、超声设备、成像设备、自动经颅多普勒设备等),许多都是为了让受试者在手术过程中垂直坐着而设计的。对于耳机(例如,用于监测神经活动的设备),在多次头部创伤后或响应神经状况时,患者可能经常无法坐着或站立,可能正在躺下,甚至可能不舒适(例如,在紧急情况下)。为受试者垂直坐着或站立而设计的耳机可能无法正确坐着或操作。此外,为受试者设计的传统机器人或手动耳机设备可能重达几磅,因此会使受试者的颈部肌肉或头部结构紧张。
Abstract
From the background information supplied by the inventors, news correspondents o btained the following quote: “For devices utilizing a headset for which performa nce is optimized by remaining stable with respect to a user’s head (e.g., optica l devices, virtual reality headsets, surgical devices, ultrasound devices, imagi ng devices, automated Transcranial Doppler devices, and so on), many are designe d to have the subject sit vertically during operation. With respect to medical d evices that are headsets (e.g., devices for monitoring neurological activity), a fter many head traumas or in response to neurological conditions, a patient may often not be able to sit or stand and may be laying down, or may even be unconsc ious (e.g., during an emergency situation). Accordingly, headsets designed for s ubjects sitting or standing vertically may not sit or operate correctly. Further more, traditional robotic or manual headset devices designed to be worn by the s ubject may weigh several pounds and therefore strain the neck muscles or head st ructure of the subject.”
