VALIDATION AND EVALUTION OF IGPS CONFIGURATIONS - DESCRIPTION OF A TOOL SIMULATING THE LINES OF SIGTH -

Robert Schmitt, Stefan Quinders
Abstract:
This paper describes a tool for simulating the lines of sight of a dedicated measurement system (indoor global positioning system, iGPS) during the use within a cooperating multi-robotic assembly.
The tool evaluates the iGPS configuration of such a dedicated measurement system and therefore the declaration of the process capability of a complex assembly system can be estimated.
The papers result is a tool which evaluates the iGPS transmitter configuration during the robot movement. The iPGS-signals are monitored and controlled throughout all stages of assembly. The complex challenge to select a valuable transmitter configuration, due to the assembly task, can be solved in an early planning phase by simulating the real cell. This allows a fast reconfiguration of a robotic assembly process with an integrated and dedicated measurement system.
The simulation is evaluated by a real assembly cell equipped with cooperating robots and an iGPS measurement system.
