System and method for position and posture detection are provided to determine whether to update an original position and posture information of a surgical machine during surgery navigation. The system includes a sensing element, a displacement and/or angle sensing element and a processor. A coordinate signal of a marker module generated by the sensing element and a displacement and/or angle signal of the marker module generated by the displacement and/or angle sensing element are received by the processor and used to create a transformation matrix. A position and posture information of the surgical machine is obtained using the transformation matrix and the coordinate signal and provided to determine whether to update the original position and posture information.

An implant carrier assembly, including a first housing, a second housing, a mixing pot for receiving powder, and a sealed container for receiving liquid, is provided. The first housing and the second housing are detachably assembled to each other to form a receiving space. An implant is received therein or removed therefrom. The second housing has a hole communicating with the receiving space. The sealed container is inserted into the mixing pot, and the mixing pot is assembled to the second housing, such that the sealed container is packed and squeezed inside the mixing pot and broken and the liquid flows out of the sealed container. The powder and the liquid are mixed and flow into the receiving space through the hole.
