ACE Sight Calibrations ACE Sight Calibrations This section covers two three basic calibrations: l Belt-to-robot calibration l Camera-to-robot calibration NOTE : The Basic camera calibration should have already been performed. See Standalone Camera Calibration . l Latch-to-robot calibration When do I Calibrate? Calibration needs to be performed once for each different setup. If you make changes to the setup, specifically to the robot, belt, or camera position, parameters, or configuration, then you must recalibrate the new setup. What Order? NOTE : All devices being calibrated must be connected and functioning properly. 1. ACE Sight Belt Calibration:
This calibrates a conveyor belt to a robot. It consists of an interview wizard followed by a calibration wizard. You must run this calibration before the ACE Sight Camera Calibration. NOTE : ACE Sight Belt Calibration is not needed if there is no conveyor belt in the system. When the ACE Sight Belt Calibration is completed, ACE Sight generates an ACE Sight Belt Calibration object, which will be needed for the ACE Sight Camera Calibration. See "ACE Sight Belt Calibration". 2. ACE Sight Camera Calibration: This calibrates a camera to a robot, making the system aware of the location of the camera's field of view with respect to the robot.
It consists of an interview wizard followed by a calibration wizard. When the ACE Sight Camera Calibration is completed, ACE Sight generates an ACE Sight Camera Calibration object. See "ACE Sight Camera Calibration". 3. ACE Sight Latch Calibration: This calibrates a latch to a robot. It consists of an interview wizard followed by a calibration wizard.
