Title: John M. Harris and Automated Craniotomy Technology
Introduction
John M. Harris is an inventor associated with San Mateo, California, and Neuralink, Corp. His patent work concerns automated craniotomy milling, combining computer-controlled machining with sensing systems to adjust the tool’s feed rate.
Latest Patents
Harris is credited with 1 patent: “Automatic Craniotomy and Bonework via Milling, Force Sensing, and Impedance Sensing.” The disclosed system uses a computer numerical milling machine with a spindle and end mill positioned relative to a patient’s cranium. An impedance measurement system and an axial force sensor provide information to a processor, which can signal the controller to change the end mill’s feed rate in response to changes in impedance or axial force.
Career Highlights
The patent describes an approach to craniotomy milling that integrates mechanical control with impedance and force measurements. These sensing inputs are used to inform adjustments to the milling process.
Collaborations
Harris is associated with Neuralink, Corp. His listed coworkers include Dalton James Colen and Graydon J. Wilson.
Conclusion
John M. Harris’s patent focuses on sensor-guided, computer-controlled craniotomy milling, with feed-rate adjustments based on impedance and axial-force changes.
