Abstract
Robotic Total Stations (RTSs) were first invented by Geodimeter in the year 1990. In
the recent years, 3D machine guidance systems have increased the productivity of
construction works. Most machine guidance systems use RTSs with automatic targeting
and tracking for position determination. The major applications for machine guidance
systems can be found in construction industry and mining for the guidance of dozers,
motor graders, excavators, scrapers as well as in agricultural applications for the
guidance of tractors and harvesters.
Motorization and automation of the RTSs began a new, faster and more effective way
for surveying measurement. Development of the RTSs with automatic searching and
tracking opened new possibilities for their utilization in all areas of surveying,
especially in the area of the engineering surveying. RTSs with automatic searching and
tracking, offer the possibility to track and order cinematic processes such as movement
and deformations of the building structures.
Since little information is known about the dynamic accuracy of RTSs in their real-time
operation, the aim of this project is to determine the dynamic accuracy and reliability of
RTSs.
It is vital to test various types of instruments in order to compare the results to the
various manufacturers' specification. However, further research and testing will be
carried out in the near future in order to obtain the relevant accuracies and reliabilities
of the various types of RTSs.
