Abstract
A surgical system includes a joint distractor configured to apply a distraction force to a first bone to distract a joint, a tracking system configured to track relative poses of the joint distractor and the first bone of the joint in contact with the joint distractor, and a computing system. The computing system is programmed to receive information indicating the relative poses of the joint distractor rand the first bone of the joint, determine, using the relative poses of the joint distractor and the first bone of the joint, a characteristic of the distraction force, and cause, using the characteristic of the distraction force, an adjustment of the distraction force.
