Abstract
A system for cutting bone is provided and may comprise a cutting tool configured to rotate and a shield. The system may also comprise a first robotic arm configured to hold the cutting tool and a second robotic arm configured to hold the shield. A processor and a memory storing instructions for execution by the processor that, when executed, may cause the processor to cause the second robotic arm to orient the shield proximate an anatomical element along a cutting path of the cutting tool.

A system for cutting bone comprising:
- a cutting tool configured to rotate;
- a shield;
- a first robotic arm configured to hold the cutting tool;
- a second robotic arm configured to hold the shield;

A system for cutting bone comprising:
- a cutting tool supported by a robotic arm;
- a shield supported by the robotic arm;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing instructions for execution by the processor that, when executed, cause the processor to:
- cause the robotic arm to orient the shield proximate an anatomical element at a planned exit point of the cutting tool, and to control the cutting tool to cut through the anatomical element toward the planned exit point.
