Abstract

The problem of robot accuracy is studied. Based on an error model developed by C. H. Wu (1983, 1984), which describes the accuracy of a robot manipulator resulting from kinematic errors, a statistical analysis is performed to obtain an estimation to the robot accuracy which is measured in terms of the covariance matrix of the Cartesian errors of the end-effector. The maximum likelihood estimate for this covariance matrix is derived. The presented estimate entails a measurement of Cartesian errors at many different arm positions in the known world, without actually dealing with individual kinematic errors.
