dc.description.abstract | This master’s thesis investigates the activation time of electrical signals along a
robot’s path and explores the potential impact of calculation errors in robot
position and speed. The study emphasizes the need for reliable and consistent
results in systems that require high precision and accuracy. Two primary
experiments were conducted to examine the existence of calculation errors.
The first experiment involved altering the robot’s path while maintaining a
constant speed. Activation times of the electrical signal were recorded and
compared to a stationary reference point, aiming to identify potential calculation
errors in position. The findings suggest the presence of calculation errors, but
limited data points resulted in no definitive conclusions.
The second experiment focused on traversing the same path with varying robot
speeds. Activation times were recorded and compared to the stationary reference
point to identify potential calculation errors in robot speed. Although indications
of calculation errors were observed, conclusive results were not obtained.
While no definitive conclusions regarding the existence or extent of calculation
errors were reached, this thesis establishes a framework for future experimentation.
The framework provides a structured approach for further investigations, enabling
researchers to understand the relationship between calculation errors of robot
position and speed, and activation time. | |
