  • Abstract
    The optimal positioning of a robot equipped with a camera is studied to ensure the best triangulation accuracy. Two quantities are derived to measure the triangulation accuracy: the triangulation sensitivity and the triangulation error; both are derived based on the idealized pinhole camera model. By minimizing these measures, the optimum positions of the camera are determined. The position constraints on the camera due to the robot configuration and the working environment are also included in the problem formulation
