Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer-readable medium tracks locations of one or more surgical instruments. The method includes detecting a plurality of markers disposed on a distal end of a first surgical instrument within a field of view of a camera, calculating a position of the first surgical instrument based on a location of the plurality of markers within the field of view of the camera, determining the position of the first surgical instrument in relation to a second surgical instrument.
