Abstract

A surgical system includes a controller and a robotic arm configured to hold a surgical tool at a distal end of the robotic arm. The controller is configured to define, based on a surgical plan, a target pose relative to a tracked position of an anatomical feature, generate a planned path for moving the surgical tool held by the robotic arm from a first pose to the target pose, output control signals configured to cause automated motion of the robotic arm based on the planned path, detect a deviation of the surgical tool from the planned path, and in response to detecting the deviation of the distal end from the planned path, update the control signals to stop the automated motion of the robotic arm.
