A patient interface device (PID) for contacting the surface of the eye and having a meniscus inverter. A pin, clip and ridge configuration for holding a window and maintaining an open reservoir of BSS in a PID. A PID for integrated systems and methods for performing laser and phacoemulsification operations. A PID for a reconfigurable system for performing a laser procedure in a laser configuration, and then being reconfigured into a phaco configuration, to perform a phacoemulsification, and then being reconfigured back to the laser configuration.

Patient interface devices and methods and systems for combined sonic and laser applications

A laser system including a laser source that generates a laser beam and an optical switch that receives the laser beam and selectively sends the laser beam to either a fast path or a slow path, wherein in the fast path the laser beam has a first F/# and in the slow path the laser beam has a second F/# that is higher in value that of the first F/#. The laser system further including an afocal optical system that is in the slow path and receives the laser beam from the optical switch and an x-y scanner that receives either a first laser beam from the slow path or a second laser beam from the fast path. The laser system including a scan lens system that receives a scanning laser beam from the x-y scanner and performs a z-scan for the scanning laser beam only in the case wherein the scanning laser beam is generated from the laser beam in the fast path. The laser system further including an aspheric patient interface device that receives a laser beam from the scan lens system.

System and method for laser generated corneal and crystalline lens incisions using a variable F/# optical system with aspheric contact interface to the cornea or rotating and adaptive optics

A laser system including a laser source that generates a laser beam and an optical switch that receives the laser beam and sends the laser beam to either a fast path or a slow path, wherein the F/# of the fast path is lower than the F/# of the slow path. The laser system includes an afocal optical system in the slow path and receives the laser beam from the optical switch and an x-y scanner that receives either a laser beam from the slow path or a laser beam from the fast path. The laser system including a scan lens system that performs a z-scan for the scanning laser beam only in the case wherein the scanning laser beam is generated from the laser beam in the fast path. The laser system including an aspheric patient interface device that receives a laser beam from the scan lens system.

To generate an image that captures a 360-degree horizontal view around a vehicle in a lidar system, four or more lidar sensors may be placed at the four corners of the vehicle. Each lidar sensor is phased 90 degrees apart and synchronously scans a respective 90-degree field of regard. The 90 degree fields of regard from each of the four or more lidar sensors may combine to scan a complete 360-degree field of regard around the vehicle.

Synchronized multiple sensor head system for a vehicle

To solve depth of field issues when scanning, transmitting, and receiving light pulses in a lidar system, a receiver in the lidar system may include a lens having a lens plane in front of one or several photodetectors arranged on a detector plane. The lens plane and the detector plane may be nonparallel with respect to each other creating a wedge shaped depth of field. In this manner, return light pulses from far away and nearby targets may stay in focus.
