Single-camera multi-point vision: on the use of robotics for digital image correlation

Abstract

We introduce in this paper a novel approach for the design of buckling tests for which the deformation of the sampled is studied using one single camera mounted on a six-axis robot arm. This setup allows to pre-determine multiple configurations of deformation of the sample using a virtual model of the experiment. The question of the calibration of the digital camera parameters is also studied, introducing a 3D target containing CharUco boards. Early results are given.
