In order to improve the measurement accuracy of three-dimensional (3D) scanning robot, a method of 3D scanning robot system error modeling and compensation based on particle swarm optimization radial basis function neural network (PSO-RBFNN) is proposed to achieve intelligent compensation of measurement error. The structure, calibration and error modeling process of 3D scanning robot system are mainly described. Cleverly using the iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm to construct input and output data pairs of neural network, and the specific process of error modeling using PSO-RBFNN is given. Finally, through the actual experiment we test and verify the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed error modeling and compensation method by measuring the distance between the centers of two standard balls. Experimental results show: the proposed error model and the compensation method can effectively compensate the measurement errors and improve the accuracy of the 3D scanning robot system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
