Embodiment Construction

[0022] Such as figure 1 As shown in , a system 20 for treating a patient 22 is illustrated. System 20 is shown in a surgical setting, such as an operating room of a medical facility. In the illustrated embodiment, system 20 includes a processing station 24 and a guiding station 26 . Guidance station 26 is configured to track the movement of various objects in the operating room. These objects include, for example, the surgical instrument 30, the patient's femur F, and the patient's tibia T. Guidance station 26 tracks these objects to display their relative positions and orientations to the user, and in some cases, to control or constrain movement of surgical instrument 30 relative to a target site, such as femoral target site TS. Surgical instrument 30 is shown as part of processing station 24 .

[0023] Guidance station 26 includes a navigation cart assembly 32 that houses a navigation computer 34 . The navigation interface is in operative communication with the navigati...

Abstract

Navigation systems and methods are provided for tracking physical objects near a target site during a surgical procedure. The navigation system includes a robotic device and an instrument attached to the robotic device. A vision device is attached to a robotic device or machine and generates a vision data set. Capture visual datasets from multiple viewpoints of physical objects. The computing system associates the virtual object with the physical object based on one or more characteristics of the physical object recognizable in the vision dataset. The virtual object at least partially defines a virtual boundary of the instrument.

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application claims priority to and benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 340,176, filed May 23, 2016, the entire disclosure and content of which is hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The present disclosure generally relates to systems and methods for identifying and tracking physical objects during robotic surgical procedures. Background technique [0004] Navigation systems help users pinpoint objects. For example, navigation systems are used in industrial, aerospace and medical applications. In medicine, navigation systems help surgeons precisely place surgical instruments relative to a patient's target site. The target site typically requires some form of treatment (such as tissue ablation). Traditional navigation systems employ a locator that cooperates with a tracker to provide position and / or orientation data associated with the surgical instrument and the target site, eg, the amount of...
