Abstract

This paper describes a current research which involves the development of a special end effector and the necessary algorithms to perform inspection and gaging tasks using tactile sensing. The special end effector, which has a mechanical probe performs these operations by using adaptive contact and continuous measurement of forces to determine the locations and the dimensions of the holes to be inspected. This will provide a flexible and relatively inexpensive means of inspection when extremely high accuracies are not desired.
