Improving Accuracy and Flexibility of Industrial Robots Using Computer Vision
نویسندگان
چکیده
A high level of positioning accuracy is an essential requirement in a wide range of industrial robots’ applications. Robot calibration is a process by which robot positioning accuracy can be improved. During a manipulator control system design, and periodically in the course of task performing, manipulator geometry calibration is required. Nowadays robot calibration plays an increasingly important role in robot production as well as in robot implementation and operation within computer-integrated manufacturing where the simulated robot must reflect the real robot geometry (Elatta, et al. 2004; Khalil & Dombre, 2004; Perez, et al. 2009).
