In-situ elastic calibration of robots: Minimally-invasive technology, cover-based pose search and aerospace case studies

This paper presents a novel technology for the in-situ robot elastic calibration (IREC) in industrial settings. It was especially formulated for robots that are used for accuracy demanding processes involving an exchange of force between the robot and the processed part. The calibration method was developed to conciliate requirements of minimal invasiveness, for seamless deployment in industrial settings, together with a high degree of …
