What to expect

Understanding the impact of Calibration is a complicated topic, so some guiding examples are given to help with intuition / comprehension.

A simple reference model is the following: Calibration fixes the shape of what the Robot does. Teaching the reference frame (RobFlow: Workspace) fixes where that shape is in the world.

Expected mean error for each combination of calibration and workspace referencing

The numbers in each panel give the expected mean error for that combination: the left value applies to an 800x800 mm grid, the right value to a 300x300 mm grid. For example, a calibrated Robot combined with Workspace referencing reaches a mean error of about 3 mm across an 800x800 mm grid and about 1 mm across a 300x300 mm grid.
