SBIR Phase I: Multimodal Interfaces for Interventional Cardiology and Radiology

该小企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段项目旨在开发用于干预程序（SGIIP）的语音手势接口。在介入放射学和心脏病学套房中发现的无菌环境对运动控制提出了独特的挑战。在这种环境中，口头语言和手势可能提供一种非常直观的方式来控制设备。这项工作将利用该团队过去在语音/手势界面和医疗设备方面的经验。在一期项目中，放射学和心脏病学领域的专家将协助设计介入性心脏病学的实验试验台。在接下来的第二期工程中，这个试验台将被完善，并与商业干预系统集成。该项目的商业应用是在生物医学设备和仪器领域。拟议的SGIIP系统在商业部署时，将显著影响放射科医生和心脏病专家与介入设备的互动方式，从而提高安全性和效率。

This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project aims to develop a Speech Gesture Interface for Interventional Procedures (SGIIP). The sterile environment found in interventional radiology and cardiology suites presents unique challenges for motion control. Spoken words and hand gestures potentially provide a very intuitive way to control devices in this environment. The proposed work will leverage the team's past experience in speech/gesture interfaces and medical devices. In the Phase I project, Domain experts in radiology and cardiology will aid in the design of an experimental test-bed for interventional cardiology. In the follow on Phase II project, this test-bed will be refined and integrated with commercial interventional systems. The commercial application of this project is in the area of biomedical devices and instrumentation. The proposed SGIIP system, when commercially deployed, will significantly impact the way radiologists and cardiologists interact with the interventional devices, leading to improvements in safety and efficiency.
