Abstract

Automated calibration of a machine vision system employs a calibration target assembly mountable to a robotic transfer assembly. An inventory management system includes a robotic transfer apparatus, a calibration target assembly, and a stereo vision assembly. The robotic transfer apparatus includes a support assembly and a transfer assembly. The support assembly is configured for repositioning the transfer assembly relative to the support assembly. The transfer assembly is rotatable relative to the support assembly. The calibration target assembly mountable to the transfer assembly and includes optical calibration targets. The stereo vision assembly is configured for imaging the optical calibration targets to generate calibration image data that is processed to generate calibration data for the machine vision system.
