Abstract
Systems and methods for robotic retraction or robotic distraction are disclosed such as for a surgical procedure. An example system is a localization system to automatically position a trackable surgical retractor or distraction with respect to a patient comprising a patient tracking element adapted to be coupled to a patient; a processing unit configured to: track the poses of the patient via the patient tracking element, and the trackable surgical retractor or distractor; and command a robotic manipulator to move a tip of the trackable surgical retractor or distractor coupled to the manipulator from a first position, in engagement with the patient, to a second position while remaining in engagement with the patient.
