Abstract
Described herein is the automatic re-registration of a bumped reference marker, where the navigation system includes the reference marker, a bump detection sensor(s), and a computing device. The computing device can store positional relationships between the reference marker, the bump detection sensor(s), and the anatomy from an initial image registration and receive position data of the reference marker and bump detection sensor(s) at times during use. The computing device can determine a delta matrix based on the stored and received information and then determine if the reference marker has been bumped. If the reference marker has been bumped the computing device can determine if automatic re-registration is required and complete the automatic re-registration if needed to correct for the bump.
