This paper presents a general method to identify the geometric parameters of robots. An algorithm is given to calculate the identifiable geometric parameters. The robot location and the tool location parameters are taken into account. The algorithm is generalized to tree structure robots. The problem of selecting the optimum robot configurations to be used during the identification is discussed and a solution is proposed.
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.
