Abstract

The invention relates to a system for positioning a tool relative to an anatomical structure. The system comprises a robotic arm configured to position a tool and to adjust a force applied by the tool. The system also comprises force determination means to determine a force applied by the tool to the anatomical structure. A navigation system determines positions of a target tracker placed on the anatomical structure and of the tool. A controller receives data from the navigation system and the force determination means and determines whether the tool is in contact with the anatomical structure. After determining that the tool is in contact with the anatomical structure, the controller adjusts the force applied to the tool such that the magnitude of the force is within a predefined force range and the direction of the applied force is within a predefined range of directions.
