This thesis introduces a complete design framework for robotic surface finishing of curved surfaces. The system setup is subdivided into three key components: Real-time surface registration is accomplished by employing a proximity laser sensor mounted on the robot end-effector. The proximity sensor measurements coupled with the robot kinematics is employed to derive the coordinates of the projection points. The entire set of projection points is combined to form a grid upon which the surface
