    Abstract
  • With the continuous improvement of automation, industrial robots have become an indispensable part of automated production lines. They are widely used in a number of industrial production activities, such as spraying, welding, handling, etc., and have a great role in these sectors. Recently, the robotic technology is developing towards high precision, high intelligence. Robot calibration technology has a great significance to improve the accuracy of robot. However, it has much work to be done in the identification of robot parameters. The parameter identification work of existing serial and parallel robots is introduced. On the one hand, it summarizes the methods for parameter calibration and discusses their advantages and disadvantages. On the other hand, the application of parameter identification is introduced. This overview has a great reference value for robot manufacturers to choose proper identification method, points further research areas for researchers. Finally, this paper analyzes the existing problems in robot calibration, which may be worth researching in the future.

    Highlights

    • The error parameter identification of serial and parallel robots is summarized. The parameter identification algorithms of complex serial and parallel robot are not involved, then the parameter identification algorithms of simple serial and parallel robot are introduced, the advantages and disadvantages of these algorithms are analyzed. In addition, the research results of these calibration algorithms and the types of calibration errors are introduced.
    • The robot kinematics and dynamics models, the parameter identification algorithms, calibration process and some classic applications of robot calibration are introduced, and the related research work at home and abroad is reviewed. Then a new robot calibration method is discussed, which can solve the problems of measurement noise and external constraints.
    • Recently, with the development of robot calibration research, some research results have been achieved in geometric parameter calibration and non-geometric parameter calibration. However, there are still some problems worth exploring. This paper discusses the challenges in robot calibration and introduces the future development trend of robot calibration technology, which provides new ideas for future research.
