Abstract
A simplified framework is introduced for automatically and quickly registering the Cartesian coordinate systems of industrial robots to any other arbitrary coordinate system. This framework includes both explicit and implicit (sensor-based) registration techniques using as few as three reference poses per robot. Driven by the guiding principles of simplifying the registration process to enable rapid installation by non-expert users, a mathematical basis for fast system registration is presented. Several case study examples are provided in which the registration performance is captured across four different registration methods, and two different robots. A reference motion capture system is used to capture post-registration positioning accuracy of the robots, and results are systematically quantified.Proceedings Title
