Abstract
The main problem of the calibration of robots is to measure the position and orientation of a robot end effector. The calibration methods can be used as tool to improve the accuracy of robots without change of the arm or control architecture or robots. But such calibration methods require accurate measurements. Dynamic measurement of position and orientation provides a solution for this problem and improves dynamic accuracy by dynamic calibration of robots. This paper describes the development of the laser tracking system capable of determining the static and dynamic performance of industrial robots. The structure and systems components are presented and basic experimental results are included to demonstrated the instrument performance. The system can be applied to the remote controlled mobile robots as well s the calibration of robots.
