Abstract
A robotic surgery system for cutting a bone of a patient includes a handheld manipulator configured to be manually moved in a global coordinate system relative to the bone. The handheld manipulator includes a cutting tool, a handle, and an actuator coupled between the handle and the cutting tool such that the actuator is configured to move the cutting tool relative to the handle. The system also includes a controller programmed to control the actuator to compensate for both operator tremor and patient movement.
