Abstract :
A new geometrical self-calibration method for delta parallel robots with compensation of the non-geometrical gravity effects is proposed. It allows a quick and easy enhancement of the robot positioning accuracy through the implementation of redundant sensors on its structure. After the theoretical aspects of the method, simulations are presented and compared to the experimental results.
