Abstract
Systems and methods to track objects within an operating room with a navigation system that includes an optical sensor including sensing elements and a controller in communication with the optical sensor. The controller controls the optical sensor to process a first quantity of the sensing elements to view a first region of interest. The object is tracked within the first region of interest with the optical sensor. The controller obtains data related to the object within the operating room. The data may include a type of the object and/or prior pose data of the object being tracked. Based on the data, the controller controls the optical sensor to process a second quantity of the sensing elements, different from the first quantity, to view a second region of interest different from the first region of interest. The object is tracked within the second region of interest with the optical sensor.
