Abstract
A tool adapter (18), consisting of an adapter arm (102) having a proximal end terminating with a connection (110) and a distal end having a circular coupling (104), the circular coupling having a center and defining an axis (114) orthogonal to the circular coupling and passing through the center. The adapter also has a tool grip (32) rotatingly connected to the circular coupling so as to permit rotation of the tool grip about the axis, the tool grip being configured to fixedly retain a tool (16) along the axis.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a tool adapter comprising:
- an adapter arm having a proximal end and a distal end comprising an opening;
- a tool grip configured to retain a tool, the tool grip being rotatingly connected to the opening so as to permit rotation of the tool grip with respect to the adapter arm when assembled;
- and
- a position marker connected to the proximal end;
- a processor configured for tracking the tool adapter;
- and
- a head-up display coupled to the processor, the head-up display comprising:
- one or more augmented reality displays configured for displaying an augmented reality image including the position marker.
