Abstract

See full text

Navigation systems and methods for reducing tracking interruptions during a surgical procedure. A virtual boundary generator generates virtual boundaries associated with tracking devices and a localizer. A collision detector evaluates movement of virtual objects relative to the virtual boundaries to detect collisions between the virtual objects and the virtual boundaries. A feedback generator responds to the collision detection to reduce tracking interruptions between the tracking devices and the localizer.
