Examples of systems and methods for performing an orthopedic knee arthroplasty surgery with a robotic arm are generally described herein. A method may include awakening, using a robotic controller, a robotic arm from a parked mode to a surgical procedure mode. Moving, using the robotic controller, the robotic arm to a specified position to aid in the surgical procedure. The method may further include initiating, using the robotic controller, the surgical procedure by activating the robotic arm. In some examples, the robotic arm may be connected to a robotic base located between a first leg support configured to support a first leg of the patient during the surgical procedure and a second leg support configured to support a second leg of the patient during the surgical procedure.
