Abstract
A surgical system includes a robotic arm extending from a base, a tracking system configured to track at least one of a first marker attached to a distal end of the robotic arm and a second marker attached to the base, and a controller. The controller is configured to obtain an indication that the base is in position for performing a surgical operation, determine a starting pose for a registration routine for the robotic arm, control the robotic arm to automatically move to the starting pose for the registration or calibration routine, and in response to successful automatic movement to the starting pose for the registration or calibration routine, perform the registration or calibration routine for the robotic arm.
