It is well known that most of the industrial robots have excellent repeatability in positioning. However, the absolute position errors of industrial robots are relatively poor, and in some cases the error may reach even several millimeters, which make it difficult to apply the robot system to vehicle assembly lines that need small position errors. In this paper, we have studied a method to reduce the absolute position error of robots using machine vision and neural network. The position/orientation of robot tool-end is compensated using a vision-based approach combined with a neural network, where a novel indirect calibration approach is presented in order to gather information for training the neural network. In the simulation, the proposed compensation algorithm was found to reduce the positional error to 98%. On average, the absolute position error was 0.029 mm. The application of the proposed algorithm in the actual robot experiment reduced the error to 50.3%, averaging 1.79 mm.
