Abstract
Systems and methods according to embodiments of the present disclosure include: receiving registration data including information about a location of an anatomical element in a surgical environment; defining, based on the registration data, a three-dimensional (3D) volume in the surgical environment including the anatomical element; and controlling a robotic arm inside the surgical environment based on the defined 3D volume such that at least the robotic arm or one or more components attached to the robotic arm avoids passing through the defined 3D volume during a movement of the robotic arm.
