Systems and methods for robotic retraction of tissues in a surgical field. Two retractor mechanisms are used on either side of an incision. Each retractor is adapted to be held by a robotic arm, which applies force on the retractor mechanism to pull dissected tissue away from the incision, thus revealing the operative field. Optionally, each retractor has a set of interdigitating fingers. A force sensor is employed to measure the force on the retractor, an optional tracking sensor may be used to measure the extent of tissue retraction in two or three dimensions, and both sources of information provided to the robotic controller. By monitoring feedback from either the force sensor or the tracking sensor, the system is able to maintain equal retraction on both sides of the incision. The retractor elements incorporate mechanisms that move down the tissue as the retractors are pulled laterally.
