    Abstract: A robotic surgical system according to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure includes a first robot arm coupled to a second robot arm, where a surgical tool is attached to the first robot arm and an ultrasonic sensor is attached to the second robot arm. Accordingly, when the first robot arm is moved to position the surgical tool adjacent a target site of a patient, the second robot arm is also moved to position the ultrasonic sensor adjacent the surgical tool and the target site. In some examples, images generated by the ultrasonic sensor may be used to determine layers of fascia of the patient at the target site. Subsequently, the surgical tool may move through the layers of fascia while continuing to receive real-time images of the tissue displacement instrument relative to the target site from the ultrasonic sensor.

    Abstract: A system comprises a robotic arm in a robotic arm coordinate system, a camera in a fixed pose in a navigation coordinate system, at least one processor, and memory including instructions that when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to determine a pose of the robotic arm within the navigation coordinate system, map the robotic arm coordinate system to the navigation coordinate system based on the pose of the robotic arm, and control, based on output of the camera, the robotic arm in the navigation coordinate system.
