Abstract
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for discretizing a movement or a motion of one or more robotic arms. The system may comprise a robotic arm, an end effector coupled to a distal portion of the robotic arm, and a trocar through which the end effector may be inserted. The trocar may comprise a trocar reference point. The system may further comprise a processor configured to (i) determine a starting position and a destination position of a distal end of the end effector, (ii) determine a path between the starting position and the destination position, (iii) determine a plurality of points along the path, and (iv) determine a set of motions to move the distal end of the end effector from the starting position to the destination position, based at least in part on the trocar reference point.
