摘要:
Embodiments of systems and methods for an interface for providing a user withfeedback are presented. Specifically,embodiments of such an interface may include a head-up display unit which ismounted on a microscope utilized by a user whenperforming a surgical procedure. The heads-up display unit may include an eye-piece ring which is fitted onto or in one of the eyepieces of the microscope. The heads-up unit receives data regarding one ormore parameters from a surgical console or other sourceand produces audio or visual feedback corresponding to a desired parameter.Any visual feedback produced may then be propagatedto the eye piece ring allowing a user of the microscope to obtain the feedbackwhen performing a surgical procedure utilizing themicroscope and obviating the need to look at a screen of the surgical consoleto obtain such feedback. Thus, feedback is provided toa user in a non-intrusive manner such that the user can obtain this feedbackwithout distracting from a surgical procedure.
