Abstract

In this paper, we present a method to generate surface models based on a point cloud. Aim of the model generation is to produce surface forms which are easy to locate in a robot based workcell. We obtain the point cloud from workobject CAD model or the point cloud can be generated based on actual measurements from the surface of the workobject carried out using a robot and a range sensor. In addition to presenting the different parametric forms, we estimate the uncertainties of the surface model parameters and consider the effect of uncertainties in these model parameters in workobject localization. The estimation of surface parameters and workobject localization is carried out using Bayesian -form estimation method and all noises are considered when modelling the uncertainties of the system.
