Abstract
Described are methods and systems for computer aided surgery (CAS) comprising an augmented reality (AR) system configured to display augmented reality information including a virtual control element, a position tracking system separate from the AR system, wherein the position tracking system is configured to track positions of a physical object for interacting with the virtual control element, a controller configured to: receive planning information for a surgical procedure; determine a first input indicating that the physical object is interacting with the virtual control element; determine a change in position of the physical object interacting with the virtual control element indicating a first adjustment to a parameter of the planning information; receive a second input that either indicates a second adjustment to a parameter of the planning information different from the first adjustment or confirms the first adjustment to the planning information; and store the adjustment to the planning information.
