Abstract :
The remote calibration of robot has not been feasible due to technical limitations. Recently, the advances in Internet technologies enabled various production equipment, sensors, and control functions integrated with network systems. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility regarding the remote calibration of Web-controllable production micro robotic system. Many technical merits can be accrued from this approach. Robot operators do not have to be on- site, and the positioning accuracy of the robot can be quantified and verified. The geographical barriers can be overcome and the robot can be integrated into the automated information networks for more efficient production planning and guaranteed part positioning accuracy.
