Abstract

Navigation systems and methods for tracking physical objects near a target site during a surgical procedure are provided, the navigation system comprises a robotic device and an instrument attached to the robotic device; a process of optical registration and calibration can improve operation results by increasing accuracy and speed and eliminate the need for additional reference trackers, such as a pointer.
