Abstract
A system and method of monitoring control points during reactive motion includes a computer-assisted device. The computer-assisted device includes the one or more articulated arms and a control unit coupled to the one or more articulated arms. The control unit is configured to perform operations comprising determining, before movement of a table separate from the computer-assisted device, a latched spatial configuration of a plurality of control points associated with the one or more articulated arms; determining one or more geometric attributes of the latched spatial configuration; determining an actual spatial configuration of the plurality of control points as the one or more articulated arms track the movement of the table; determining a difference between the one or more geometric attributes of the latched spatial configuration and corresponding one or more geometric attributes of the actual spatial configuration; and performing, based on the determined difference, a remedial action.
