9. An anti-rotation base of a registration marker of a mixed reality surgery system, the anti-rotation base comprising:

a bottom surface having a curve that defines a first bottom side and a second bottom side, wherein when the anti-rotation base is attached to a patient, the bottom surface straddles a process of a bone of the patient;

a first side surface;

a second side surface parallel with the first side surface;

a first end surface, a first pin receptacle extending from the first end surface to the first bottom side of the bottom surface; and

a second end surface opposite the first end surface, a second pin receptacle extending from the second end surface to the second bottom side of the bottom surface,

wherein the first and second pin receptacles each define a respective pin axis, wherein the pin axis of the first pin receptacle is not parallel to the pin axis of the second pin receptacle,

wherein the pin axis of the first pin receptacle and the pin axis of the second pin receptacle are defined such that, when installed, a first anchor rod in the first pin receptacle does not interfere with a second anchor rod in the second pin receptacle,

wherein the pin axis of the first pin receptacle intersects the second bottom side of the bottom surface such that, when installed, a tip of the first anchor rod in the first pin receptacle contacts the second bottom side of the bottom surface, and

wherein the pin axis of the second pin receptacle intersects the first bottom side of the bottom surface such that, when installed, a tip of the second anchor rod in the second pin receptacle contacts the first bottom side of the bottom surface.

10. The anti-rotation base of claim 9 , further comprising a top surface, a mounting receptacle extending from the top surface to the bottom surface.

11. The anti-rotation base of claim 10 , wherein the mounting receptacle extends from the top surface to an apex of the curve of the bottom surface.

12. The anti-rotation base of claim 9 , further comprising a top surface, a mounting receptacle extending from the top surface to the bottom surface, the mounting receptacle defining a mounting axis, wherein the pin axis of the first pin receptacle and the pin axis of the second pin receptacle are not parallel to the mounting axis.

13. The anti-rotation base of claim 9 , wherein first and second bottom sides define a cavity configured such that, when the anti-rotation base is attached to the patient, a portion of the bone is within the cavity.

14. The anti-rotation base of claim 13 , wherein the cavity has a parabolic shape.

15. The anti-rotation base of claim 13 , further comprising a top surface, a mounting receptacle extending from the top surface to the bottom surface, wherein a mounting axis of the mounting receptacle defines define an axis of symmetry of the cavity.

16. A registration marker of a mixed reality surgery system, the registration marker comprising:

a mounting rod;

a fiducial marker comprising a polyhedron having indicia on multiple sides of the polyhedron, the fiducial marker positioned at a distal end of the mounting rod; and

an anti-rotation base positioned at a proximal end of the mounting rod, the anti-rotation base comprising:

a bottom surface configured to rest on and bear against a surface of a process of a bone of a patient, the bottom surface having a curve that defines a first bottom side and a second bottom side;

a plurality of pin receptacles that each define a respective pin axis, wherein the pin axis of a first pin receptacle of the plurality of pin receptacles is not parallel to the pin axis of a second pin receptacle of the plurality of pin receptacles;
