Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A measuring apparatus ( 1; 1 ′) for measuring a manipulator ( 10 ), with a measuring body ( 2; 2 ′) having at least one measurement point ( 3; 3 ′) that is fixed in relation to the measuring body for determining a position (T TCP,3 ; T TCP,3′ ) relative to a reference point (TCP) that is fixed in relation to the manipulator, and an attaching device connected to the measuring body ( 2 ) for fixing on the surroundings, includes at least one calibration point ( 7; 7 ′) connected to the measuring apparatus for determining a position (T R, M ; T R,M′ ) relative to the surroundings and/or at least one measurement point ( 6 ) positioned on the attaching device.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An apparatus for determining at least one of a position or an orientation of a reference point on a robotic manipulator, the apparatus comprising: a first measurement body; attachment structure operatively coupled to said first measurement body for fixing said first measurement body against movement with respect to a first reference frame during calibration; at least one first measurement feature on said first measurement body, the first measurement feat…
