Calibration of fixtures in robotic work cells is essential but also time consuming and error-prone, and poor calibration can easily lead to wasted debugging time in down-stream tasks. Contact-based calibration methods let the user measure points on the fixture’s surface with a tool tip attached to the robot’s end effector. Most such methods require the user to manually annotate correspondences on ...
