ROBOTIC SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING A TOOL REMOVING MATERIAL FROM A WORKPIECE

摘要

Robotic systems and methods for controlling a tool to remove material from a workpiece. Workpieces such as bones are often non-homogenous and have varying density distributions throughout their volumes. In some embodiments, the systems and methods control the feed rate of the tool, the tool path of the tool, and the rotational speed of the tool based on the density distribution in order to provide a desired outcome for a surgical procedure.
