Extended Kalman filtering for robotic proximity sensing

摘要

The authors address the problems in using a fiber-optic proximity sensor to detect robot end-effector positioning errors in performing a contact task when uncertainties about target position exist. An extended Kalman filter approach is employed to solve the nonlinear filtering problem. Some experimental results are given.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
