Artefacts for centering a 6-axis robot grip on an optical bench

Artefacts for centering a 6-axis robot grip on an optical bench

In 2019, I designed these artefacts to be part of the Reflectance Reference at the National Physical Laboratory. 

From my memory the cylinder was dedicated to find the middle plane from a laser pointer to a optical power meter.

Then an pentaprism was used to locate the exact zero of the robot arm.
