Abstract
A multi-robot collaboration system can complete more complex tasks than a single robot system. Ensuring the calibration accuracy between robots in the system is a prerequisite for the effective inter-robot cooperation. This paper presents a dual-robot system for orthopedic surgeries, where the relationships between hand-eye, flange-tool, and robot-robot need to be calibrated. This calibration problem can be summarized to the solution of the matrix equation of AXB=YCZ. A combined solution is proposed to solve the unknown parameters in the equation of AXB=YCZ, which consists of the dual quaternion closed-form method and the iterative method based on Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) algorithm. The closed-form method is used to quickly obtain the initial value for the iterative method so as to increase the convergence speed and calibration accuracy of the iterative method. Simulation and experimental analyses are carried out to verify the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed method.
