1. A system for robot-assisted knee arthroplasty surgery, comprising:
an end effector having a first mechanical interface;
a sagittal saw handpiece having a second mechanical interface; and
a blade adapter configured to couple the end effector to the sagittal saw handpiece, the blade adapter comprising a first coupling mechanism at a first side of the blade adapter and a second coupling mechanism at a second side of the blade adapter, the first coupling mechanism coupleable to the first mechanical interface, the second coupling mechanism coupleable to the second mechanical interface.
