Abstract

NIST is leading and supporting multiple efforts to develop standards for 3D imaging systems used for industrial automation. There are few standards for verifying the performance of these systems and NIST is working with ASTM subcommittee E57.23 on Industrial 3D Machine Vision Systems to develop them. One of these standards aims to measure the performance of robotic bin picking systems and NIST has established a testbed with six different bin-picking systems that operate using a variety of technologies. This work describes the work that is being conducted at NIST to realize the metrics related to evaluating robotic bin-picking systems.
