Have you ever seen an Optimus 3 Keyboard?. Cool toy, fairly inexpensive, and can be hacked to work in about any environment… even Radiology. The idea here is to give some control outside of the diagnostic workstation, and offer a “press of the button” type service in the event of issue… and it was entirely possible due to the OSS Driver, OM3 Controller...

What was I able to do with it?

I was able to manipulate the buttons, change the status, fire on the events when buttons were “pressed” or “pushed” and even able to integrate it with a webservice for some cool interactions and notification …

In particularly, page a person, launch a 3rd party viewer, and also launch into a web workflow with the touch of a button. Cool eh?
