Systems for fusing arthroscopic video data are described. A system comprises an arthroscopic assembly, an inertial measurement unit (IMU) mounted on the arthroscopic assembly, a processor, and a processor-readable storage medium. An arthroscopic surgical plan, images from the arthroscopic assembly, and measurements from the IMU may be obtained. The images and the measurements may be combined to form a data combination. The data combination may be filtered to form a fused data set. The fused data set may control a device. A map of an arthroscopic surgical site may be created based on the fused data set, and a position of the arthroscopic assembly with respect to the arthroscopic surgical site may be calculated. The arthroscopic surgical plan may be updated based on at least one of the map of the arthroscopic surgical site and the position of the arthroscopic assembly.
