对比5款移动机器人在航空航天无损检测中的定位精度与可重复性。

A comparative study on the accuracy & repeatability of mobile robotic platforms for the delivery of precision NDE measurement

  • 用激光跟踪仪建立统一评测标准,量化静态与动态定位误差。
  • 最佳平台(KMP-1500)静态误差8.2mm,最差(Spot)达63.5mm,动态误差最高112.1mm。
  • 结果可指导传感器升级需求,适合机器人选型与系统设计参考。

移动机器人平台为大型航空航天结构的无损检测(NDE)提供了灵活替代方案,但其基座定位精度及部署依据尚未在统一外部基准下评估。本文提出基于激光跟踪仪的评测流程(地面真值约6微米),对五款商用移动平台(KUKA KMP-1500、KUKA KMR、MiR250、Boston Dynamics Spot、Clearpath Husky)进行静态与分段轨迹定位精度测试。通过耦合多角标定恢复激光器到机器人的变换关系及反射器偏移,采用普通最小二乘法拟合所有位姿,仅保留鲁棒估计作为粗差检测。静态定位精度中位数范围为8.2mm(KMP-1500)至63.5mm(Spot),轮式里程计独用的Husky无法校准。动态路径跟随以横向往误差表征,该分量对时间对齐不敏感,范围为6.9mm(KMP-1500)至112.1mm(Spot)。精度与可校准性均反映本地化能力,从最新激光雷达SLAM平台到无地图视觉里程计依次递减。任何平台单独均无法满足航空航天NDE要求的0.2–1.0mm容差,结果被构造成设计输入,用于估算各平台需补充传感的量级:最优者约一个数量级,最差者近两个数量级,提供可复现的平台选型依据而非可行性声明。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Mobile robotic platforms offer a flexible alternative to fixed manipulators for non-destructive evaluation (NDE) of large aerospace structures, but their base-positioning accuracy and how that accuracy should inform deployment have not been assessed under a common, externally referenced protocol. This work presents a laser tracker-based evaluation workflow (ground truth approximately 6 micrometers) that measures the static and segmented trajectory positioning accuracy of five commercial mobile platforms (KUKA KMP-1500, KUKA KMR, MiR250, Boston Dynamics Spot, Clearpath Husky) under a common protocol. A coupled multi-corner calibration recovers the laser-to-robot transformation and reflector offsets; ordinary least squares over all poses is used, with robust estimation retained only as a blunder check. Static positioning accuracy ranged from a median of 8.2 mm (KMP-1500) to 63.5 mm (Spot), with the wheel-odometry-only Husky uncalibratable. Dynamic path following was characterised by cross-track error; the component was insensitive to temporal alignment, which ranged from 6.9 mm (KMP-1500) to 112.1 mm (Spot). Both accuracy and calibratability tracked localisation capability, from the newest LiDAR SLAM platform to map-free visual odometry. No configuration meets the 0.2 to 1.0 mm aerospace NDE tolerance from the base alone; the results are framed as a design input that sizes the supplementary sensing each platform requires: roughly one order of magnitude for the best platform and nearly two for the worst, providing a reproducible basis for platform selection rather than a feasibility claim.
