Abriss: | This work presents a novel method for simultaneous tool/flange and robot/world calibration by estimating a solution to the common matrix equation AX=YB. This solution is computed using a least-squares approach. Since real robots and localisation are all afflicted by certain errors, our approach allows for non-orthogonal matrices, partially compensating for imperfect calibration of the robot or localisation device. Additionally, we also introduce a new method where full robot/world and partial tool/flange calibration is possible using localisation devices providing less than six degrees of freedom. The methods are evaluated on simulation data and on real-world measurements collected using optical and magnetical tracking devices (NDI's Polaris Spectra and Aurora systems), volumetric ultrasound (a modified GE Vivid7 Dimension station, providing 3-DOF data), and a surface laser scanning device (LAP GALAXY). We compare our methods to two classical approaches: the method by Tsai/Lenz and the Dual Quaternion method by Daniilidis. In all experiments, the new algorithms strongly outperform the classical methods in terms of translational accuracy (by as much as 80%) and perform similarly in terms of rotational accuracy. Additionally, the methods are shown to be stable: the number of calibration stations used has far less influence on calibration quality than for the classical methods. |
