Abstract
A surgical system and method involve a robotic system with a base and a localizer that monitors a tracker supported by the robotic system. Sensor(s) are coupled to the robotic system and/or the localizer. Controller(s) determine a relationship between the base and the localizer. The controller(s) monitor the relationship to detect an error related to one or both of the robotic system and the localizer. The controller(s) utilize the sensor(s) to determine a cause of the error.
