External calibration and optimization of conveyor tracking for robotic applications

The aim of this thesis is to develop a calibration methodology for an Epson industrial robot, a vision system and a conveyor belt for conveyor tracking applications using external non-Epson cameras. The calibration is the joining component which allows the three essential hardware elements involved...

La calibrazione è il componente di unione che permette ai tre elementi hardware di comunicare tra loro, di condividere i dati e di ottenere prestazioni di alta qualità e precisione nelle applicazioni di tracciamento dei nastri trasportatori. La metodologia adottata per affrontare il progetto è stata quella di iniziare a conoscere e comprendere il funzionamento dei diversi elementi coinvolti in un'applicazione di tracciamento dei nastri trasportatori e del suo ambiente, partendo da un livello di base e aggiungendo progressivamente complessità. Al fine di implementare una calibrazione esterna e innovativa, è stata condotta una ricerca del processo di calibrazione fornito dal software Epson, disponibile solo per le telecamere Epson. Sono stati analizzati in dettaglio i passaggi seguiti, i parametri coinvolti e i risultati ottenuti. Successivamente, è stata sviluppata una procedura di calibrazione esterna e i risultati ottenuti da entrambe le metodologie sono stati confrontati per valutarne la corrispondenza. Si è concluso che la procedura di calibrazione esterna era valida e pronta all'uso. Infine, sono state implementate e ottimizzate alcune applicazioni di tracciamento dei trasportatori, fino a ottenere prestazioni accurate e preciseUniversitat Politècnica de CatalunyaPérez González, Juan JesúsRocco, Paolo20232023-07-1320232023-08-02master thesishttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_bdccNAhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_be7fb7dd8ff6fe43info:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/2117/392680reponame:UPCommons.
