This patent SURGEON HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY APPARATUSES got my attention due to the number of Thales employees on the author list.

Enabling Technologies
Enabling Technologies are advanced computer-assisted intelligent systems designed to enhance a surgeon’s capabilities and streamline surgical procedures to be safer, less invasive, more accurate, and more reproducible, to ultimately improve patient care and reduce radiation exposure for all involved. Our current enabling technologies are comprised of imaging, navigation and robotic (“INR”) assisted surgery solutions. This includes the
ExcelsiusGPS® platform, a robotic guidance and navigation system that supports minimally invasive and open procedures by improving visualization of
patient anatomy using patient images and by guiding instruments and implants to the specified trajectory using a robotic arm, to ultimately enhance the
surgeon’s decision making process. The ExcelsiusGPS® platform has a modular design that can be used for a variety of screw placement applications, and we
expect that it will serve as a foundation for future clinical applications using artificial intelligence and augmented reality. Surgimap® pre-planning software is used for effortless and convenient surgical planning at any time.
in2018, we acquired Nemaris Inc., a privately held company that markets and develops Surgimap®, a leading surgical planning software platform, to further bolster our efforts to advance surgical procedures through Enabling Technologies. In 2019, we acquired substantially all of the assets of StelKast, Inc., a privately held company that designs, manufactures and distributes orthopedic implants for knee and hip replacement surgeries. We intend to selectively pursue acquisitions and alliances that complement our strategic plan and provide innovative technologies, personnel with significant relevant experience, or increased market penetration. We are currently evaluating possible acquisitions and strategic
relationships and believe that our resources and experience make us an attractive acquirer or part

SURGEON HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY APPARATUSES
An augmented reality surgical system includes a head mounted display (HMD) with a see-through display screen, a motion sensor, a camera, and computer equipment. The motion sensor outputs a head motion signal indicating measured movement of the HMD. The computer equipment computes the relative location and orientation of reference markers connected to the HMD and to the patient based on processing a video signal from the camera. The computer equipment generates a three dimensional anatomical model using patient data created by medical imaging equipment, and rotates and scales at least a portion of the three dimensional anatomical model based on the relative location and orientation of the reference markers, and further rotate at least a portion of the three dimensional anatomical model based on the head motion signal to track measured movement of the HMD. The rotated and scaled three dimensional anatomical model is displayed on the display screen.
[0053] The gesture sensor 602 may include any type of sensor that can sense a gesture made by a user. In a surgical environment, use of a gesture sensor 602 to receive a gesture-based command from a surgeon or other OR personnel can be advantageous because it avoids a need for the user to touch a non-sterile surface of the HMD 600 or other device. The gesture sensor 602 may include the camera 610 which outputs video (e.g., RGB-D video) displaying movement of a user's hand, fingers, arms or other objects moved by the user along a pathway that the user knows will define a command identifiable by an operational surgical program (OSP) 632 and/or another component of the system. The camera 610 or another camera may be directed toward one of the user's eyes to identify a dwell time of the eye, blink timing, and/or movement of the eye to generate a command from the user to control what is displayed on the display screen 608.
[0073] In the example of FIG. 10, the surgeon's head is tilted downward below the first pitch threshold so that the surgeon's line-of-sight 702 is toward the operation site while looking through the TTL loupe. The surgeon may shift eye position upward so that the surgeon's line-of-sight 700 now looks through the display screen 752. The computer equipment 620 responds to the surgeon's head tilted below the first pitch threshold by operating in the full-screen operational mode to select a defined one of the video streams which it displays on the display screen 752 to generate the primary virtual display panel 710. Accordingly, the primary virtual display panel 710 can be positioned by the HMD 750 to appear to the surgeon, while maintaining the line-of-sight 700, to hover in space above and adjacent to the location of the operation site. None of the three other video streams mapped to the three secondary virtual display panels 720, 722, and 724 are presently displayed on the display screen 752.
