Abstract

This paper describes the theory behind laser tracking measurement systems (LTMS) and the development of a prototype LTMS system at Newcastle. An assessment is made of the accuracy of positioning achieved by the system in the control of the end-effector position of a Puma 560 robot manipulator using a CCD camera positioning sensor and a hollow cube retro- reflector placed on the robot wrist.
