Implementations relate to a moveable display system. In some implementations, a control unit includes a first support and a second support coupled to the first support. The second support is linearly translatable along a first axis in a first degree of freedom with respect to the first support, and at least a portion of the second support is linearly translatable along a second axis in a second degree of freedom with respect to the first support. The control unit includes a display unit rotatably coupled to the second support. The display unit is rotatable about a third axis in a third degree of freedom with respect to the second support, and the display unit includes a display device.

Moveable display system

An example medical device may include a first component including an interface, a light feature surrounding at least part of the interface, and a controller coupled to the light feature and including a memory in which are stored instructions for the controller causing a first illumination state of the light feature corresponding to a first state of the interface, and the controller causing a second illumination state of the light feature corresponding to a second state of the interface.

Light displays in a medical device

An example medical device configured for use with a teleoperated surgical system may include a control system, a movable manipulator arm, and a handle coupled to the manipulator arm, wherein in a first pose of the movable manipulator arm, the handle is oriented at a first convenient hold angle to a clinical user, wherein in a second pose of the movable manipulator arm different from the first pose, the handle is oriented at a second convenient hold angle to the clinical user, different from the first convenient hold angle, and wherein the control system includes programmed instructions to automatically move the handle from the first orientation to the second orientation as the movable manipulator arm moves from the first pose to the second pose.

Medical device handle

An example medical device may include a first component including an interface, a light feature surrounding at least part of the interface, and a controller coupled to the light feature and including a memory in which are stored instructions for the controller causing a first illumination state of the light a feature corresponding to a first state of the interface, and the controller causing a second illumination state of the Sight feature corresponding to a second state of the interface.
