Abstract

A method for optimizing performance of a robot. At least one experiment is designed including at least two tests. Each test differs from at least one other test in the experiment regarding the location of the task in relation to the robot. The boundaries that are allowable for location of a task are calculated/determined. The effect on optimality for at least one test in the experiment is calculated/determined. The experimental data is fit to an algorithm. The optimal location of the task is calculated/determined.
