Results
This section gives an overview about our calibration results. We made an elastic model of the forward kinematic
\[f = f(q, \rho_0, \kappa, \nu)\]with joint angles x\(q\), DH-parameters \(\rho_0\), elasticities\(\kappa\) ,and masses \(\nu\). We were able to drastically reduce the error by including both the joint elasticities and lateral elasticities. The effect of the different parameters on the calibration result can be seen in the following tables.
