CALIBRATION OF A COMPUTER-NUMERICALLY-CONTROLLED MACHINE
A method for calibrating a computer-numerically-controlled machine can include capturing one or more images of at least a portion of the computer-numerically-controlled machine. The one or more images can be captured with at least one camera located inside an enclosure containing a material bed. A mapping relationship can be created which maps a pixel in the one or more images to a location within the computer-numerically controlled machine. The creation of the mapping relationship can include compensating for a difference in the one or more images relative to one or more physical parameters of the computer-numerically-controlled machine and/or a material positioned on the material bed. Related systems and/or articles of manufacture, including computer program products, are also provided.

Angle calibration method
A robot includes an actuator that changes an angle of a second member relative to a first member in accordance with a command value. In a first step of an angle calibration method, a measurement object distance is obtained by measuring a distance between wall surfaces of the two measurement object portions, the measurement being made while the actuator is given an arbitrary command value. In a second step, an angular difference is obtained by calculation, the angular difference corresponding to a difference in distance between two measurement object portions, the calculation being made based on a reference measurement object distance obtained in the past and the measurement object distance obtained in the first step, the reference measurement object distance having been obtained by measuring the measurement object distance while the actuator was given an arbitrary command value.
