To enhance the perpendicularity accuracy in the robotic drilling system, a normal sensor calibration method is proposed to identify the errors of the zero point and laser beam direction of laser displacement sensors simultaneously. The procedure of normal adjustment of the robotic drilling system is introduced firstly. Next the measurement model of the zero point and laser beam direction on a datum plane is constructed based on the principle of the distance measurement for laser displacement sensors. An extended Kalman filter algorithm is used to identify the sensor errors. Then the surface normal measurement and attitude adjustments are presented to ensure that the axis of the drill bit coincides with the normal at drilling point. Finally, simulations are conducted to study the performance of the proposed calibration method and experiments are carried out on a robotic drilling system. The simulation and experimental results show that the perpendicularity of the hole is within 0.2°. They also demonstrate that the proposed calibration method has high accuracy of parameter identification and lays a basis for high-precision perpendicularity accuracy of drilling in the robotic drilling system.

At present, most sensor calibration methods are off-line calibration, which not only makes them time-consuming and laborious, but also causes considerable economic losses. Therefore, in this study, an online calibration method of current sensors is proposed to address the abovementioned issues. The principle and framework of online calibration are introduced. One of the calibration indexes is angular difference. In order to accurately verify it, data acquisition must be precisely synchronized. Therefore, a precise synchronous acquisition system based on GPS timing is proposed. The influence of ionosphere on the accuracy of GPS signal is analyzed and a new method for measuring the inherent delay of GPS receiver is proposed. The synchronous acquisition performance of the system is verified by inter-channel synchronization experiment, and the results show that the synchronization of the system is accurate. Lastly, we apply our online calibration method to the current sensor; the experimental results show that the angular difference and ratio difference meet the requirements of the national standard and the accuracy of the online calibration system can be achieved to 0.2 class, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed online calibration method.

As a mechanical component, sensor can detect spatial information. Sensor technology has been widely used in national defense, aerospace, industrial inspection and automated production areas and so on. However, the sensor calibration device cannot meet the demand of the development of the sensor. In this paper, a multi-functional force loading device, which is of good technical performance, reliable operation, wide measurement range and simple measurement method, and a six-dimensional force sensor calibration method are described.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to achieve reliable estimation of yaw angles by fusing data from low-cost inertial and magnetic sensing. Design/methodology/approach – In this paper, yaw angle is estimated by fusing inertial and magnetic sensing from a digital compass and a gyroscope, respectively. A Kalman filter estimates the error produced by the gyroscope. Findings – Drift effect produced by the gyroscope is significantly reduced and, at the same time, the system has the ability to react quickly to orientation changes. The system combines the best of each sensor, the stability of the magnetic sensor and the fast response of the inertial sensor. Research limitations/implications – The system does not present a stable behavior in the presence of large vibrations. Considerable calibration efforts are needed. Practical implications – Today, most of human–robot interaction technologies need to have the ability to estimate orientation, especially yaw angle, from small-sized and low-cost sensors. Originality/value – Existing methods for inertial and magnetic sensor fusion are combined to achieve reliable estimation of yaw angle. Experimental tests in a human–robot interaction scenario show the performance of the system.
