High accuracy mobile robot positioning using external large volume metrology instruments [PDF]

International Journal of Computer Integrated Manufacturing, 2010
A method of accurately controlling the position of a mobile robot using an external large volume metrology (LVM) instrument is presented in this article. By utilising an LVM instrument such as a laser tracker or indoor GPS (iGPS) in mobile robot navigation, many of the most difficult problems in mobile robot navigation can be simplified or avoided ...
