Abstract

A system (100) for correcting a measured position of a continuum robot (102) whilst inspecting or repairing a component (104) includes at least one first sensor (106) coupled to the continuum robot (102). The at least one first sensor (106) is configured to generate information related to an orientation of the at least one first sensor (106) relative to a reference point (124) on the continuum robot (102). The system (100) further includes at least one second sensor (108) associated with the continuum robot (102). The at least one second sensor (108) is configured to generate information related to a change in a length of the continuum robot (102). The system (100) further includes a controller (110) that determines a parasitic twist (τ_total) in the continuum robot (102) and corrects the measured position of the continuum robot (102) based on the determined parasitic twist (τ_total) in the continuum robot (102).
