发明名称 SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ACTIVATING TRANSDUCERS
摘要 Transducer-based systems and methods may be configured to display a graphical representation of a transducer-based device, the graphical representation including graphical elements corresponding to transducers of the transducer-based device, and also including between graphical elements respectively associated with a set of the transducers and respectively associated with a region of space between the transducers of the transducer-based device. Selection of graphical elements and/or between graphical elements can cause activation of the set of transducers associated with the selected elements. Transducer activation characteristics, such as initiation time, activation duration, activation sequence, and energy delivery characteristics, can vary based on numerous factors. Visual characteristics of graphical elements and between graphical elements can change based on an activation-status of the corresponding transducers. Activation requests for a set of transducers can be denied if it is determined that a transducer in the set of transducers is unacceptable for activation.

主权项 1. A transducer-activation method comprising: selecting, via an input-output device system communicatively connected to a data processing device system and a transducer-based device, at least some of a plurality of transducers of the transducer-based device, the plurality of transducers arranged in a distribution, the distribution positionable in a bodily cavity, the at least some of the plurality of transducers defining a plurality of transducer sets including at least a first transducer set, a second transducer set, and a third transducer set; and activating, via the input-output device system, the plurality of transducer sets according to a sequence, at least a portion of the activating according to the sequence including an initiation of an activation of each transducer in the first transducer set after each transducer in at least the second transducer set and the third transducer set has been activated, each of at least one of the first transducer set, the second transducer set, and the third transducer set comprising at least one transducer of the at least some of the plurality of transducers different than each respective transducer included in each of at least one other of the first, the second, and the third transducer sets, the first transducer set comprising at least a first transducer of the at least some of the plurality of transducers and a second transducer of the at least some of the plurality of transducers, the second transducer set including at least the first transducer, and the third transducer set including at least the second transducer.
