Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates-Wednesday 8 September 2021 [ AETOS Wire ]

Technology Innovation Institute (TII), the applied research pillar of Abu Dhabi’s Advanced Technology Research Council (ATRC), today announced that its Secure Systems Research Centre (SSRC) is pioneering a first-in-the-region Motion Capture (MOCAP) facility. Outside of the United States, SSRC’s unique MOCAP facility at its Masdar City premises, will enable the testing of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) or drones in an augmented reality (AR) or mixed reality environment.

The MOCAP facility will allow SSRC to simulate flying through the city of Abu Dhabi and enable high-precision ground truth to conduct sophisticated experiments as well as virtual, augmented and mixed reality testing. The ability to simulate virtual camera images and sensors facilitates testing in environments that are too large, too dangerous, or too time consuming to construct in reality.

 Researchers Found That Use of ORi May Facilitate “Preventive Action” Against Hypoxemia

NEUCHATEL, Switzerland-Tuesday 7 September 2021 [ AETOS Wire ]

(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Masimo (NASDAQ: MASI) announced today the findings of a prospective, blinded observational study published in Annals of Intensive Care in which Dr. Jean-Baptiste Lascarrou and colleagues at the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire in Nantes, France evaluated the ability of Masimo ORi™ to predict mild hypoxemia during endotracheal intubation (ETI) in ICU patients.1 They concluded that the time between decrease in ORi and subsequent decrease in oxygen saturation (SpO2) “may allow preventive action,” and that a higher ORi value during preoxygenation was “independently protective against hypoxemia.”

ORi, available outside the U.S., is a noninvasive and continuous trending index that extends oxygen monitoring on patients on supplemental oxy ... Read more »
