Abstract
Purpose
Every geometric model corresponding to a unique feature whose errors of parameters uncorrelated, so the linearization technique can be successfully applied. The solution of a linear least square problem can be applied straightforwardly. This method has advantages especially in calibrate the redundant robot because it’s relatively small. The parameters of kinematics are unique and determined by this algorithm.
Design/methodology/approach
In this paper, a geometric identification method has been studied to estimate the parameters in the Denavit–Hartenberg (DH) model of the robot. Through studying the robot’s geometric features, specific trajectories are designed for calibrating the DH parameters. On the basis of these geometric features, several fitting methods have been deduced so that the important geometric parameters of robots, such as the actual rotation centers and rotate axes, can be found.
Findings
By measuring the corresponding motion trajectory at the end-effector, the trajectory feature can be identified by using curve fitting methods, and the trajectory feature will reflect back to the actual value of the DH parameters.
Originality/value
This method is especially suitable for rigid serial-link robots especially for redundant robots because of its specific calibration trajectory and geometric features. Besides, this method uses geometric features to calibrate the robot which is relatively small especially for the redundant robot comparing to the numerical algorithm.
