Uncertainty Modelling of High-precision Trajectories for Industrial Real-time Measurement Applications

Within the field of large volume metrology, kinematic tasks such as the movement of an industrial robot have been measured using laser trackers. In spite of the kinematic applications, to date most research has focused on static measurements. It is crucial to have a reliable uncertainty of kinematic measurements in order to assess spatiotemporal path deviations of a robot. With this in mind an approach capable of real-time was developed, to determine the uncertainties of kinematic measurements.
