Abstract
This paper proposes a real-time coplanar Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline (NURBS) curve fitting in a CAD/CAM system to improve fitting quality and reduce calculation effort. Curve segmentation is applied to filter the line segments and reshape the different NURBS curve segments. Both position errors and the first derivative are considered to avoid over fitting of the NURBS curve. After the fitted NURBS curve is obtained, the corresponding interpolation for each interpolated time is further processed to obtain the motion command for each axis. The real-time NURBS curve fitting process consists of (1) discrete points import, (2) linear segment filter, (3) curve reshaping, (4) curve fitting considering both the position errors and the first derivative. Simulation results show the proposed approach effectively improves the fitting quality and calculation efficiency.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Automation and Smart Technology (AUSMT) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal devoted to publishing research papers in the fields of automation and smart technology. Currently, the journal is abstracted in Scopus, INSPEC and DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals). The research areas of the journal include but are not limited to the fields of mechatronics, automation, ambient Intelligence, sensor networks, human-computer interfaces, and robotics. These technologies should be developed with the major purpose to increase the quality of life as well as to work towards environmental, economic and social sustainability for future generations. AUSMT endeavors to provide a worldwide forum for the dynamic exchange of ideas and findings from research of different disciplines from around the world. Also, AUSMT actively seeks to encourage interaction and cooperation between academia and industry along the fields of automation and smart technology. For the aforementioned purposes, AUSMT maps out 5 areas of interests. Each of them represents a pillar for better future life: - Intelligent Automation Technology. - Ambient Intelligence, Context Awareness, and Sensor Networks. - Human-Computer Interface. - Optomechatronic Modules and Systems. - Robotics, Intelligent Devices and Systems.
