Abstract
In some examples, a simulator system may simulate one or more minimally invasive surgery (MIS) procedures associated with bone removal. The simulator system comprises an input device configured to detect a position of a portion of a user tool relative to an operation envelope, a simulation device defining one or more surfaces that define one or more boundaries for a movement of the user tool relative to the operation envelope during a simulated surgical procedure, and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to receive, from the input device, information indicative of the position of at least the portion of the user tool relative to the operational envelope, generate a performance metric based on the position of at least the portion of the user tool relative to the operational envelope over a period of time, and output, for display to a user, the performance metric.
