Zusammenfassung:Described are systems, targets, and methods for registering a tool for use in optical tracking. A first target and a second target are attached to the tool, with the first target having a known spatial relationship to the tool or end effector of the tool. By determining a spatial feature of the first target and a pose of the second target, and using the known spatial relationship between the first target and the tool or end effector of the tool, a spatial relationship between the second target and the end effector can be determined. Subsequently the first target can be removed, and the end effector is trackable based on only tracking of the second target. In some implementations, the first target is removably couplable to the tool by the same interface by which the end effector is removably couplable to the tool.
