Abstract :
This paper presents some experimental results obtained by applying an approach of Lenz and Tsai (1989) to SCARA arm calibration. A new camera calibration technique, which is singular-free for this type of system, is employed. Several practical recommendations are given for robot users in general and SCARA arm users in particular
