A method for establishing an interaction between an operator and a monitor of a computer-assisted surgery system comprises tracking a tool manipulated by the operator for providing surgical data calculated from the position/orientation of the tool. A desired interaction is identified from the operator by tracking the tool reaching a specific position and/or a specific orientation. An interactive action is activated on a monitor as a function of the desired interaction, the interactive action being unrelated to said surgical data. A motion of the tool is converted to additional interactions related to said interactive action. A computer-assisted surgery system is also provided.

A pelvic digitizer device has a body defined by a shaft having a tooling end and a handle end with a handle for being manipulated. A visual guide is oriented in a reference plane of the digitizer device. A cup is connected to the tooling end and adapted to be received in an acetabulum of a patient. An inertial sensor unit is connected to the body, the inertial sensor unit having a preset orientation aligned with the reference plane.
