An improved system (20) for the calibration of a robot system. The system (20) comprising a linear displacement measurement device (32) in conjunction with a robot calibration system. The linear displacement measurement device (32) comprising an elongated member (34), a drum, a shaft, a drum displacement mechanism and a drum rotation sensor. The drum is displaced axially upon the shaft as the drum rotates when the elongated member (34) is moved. The drum rotation sensor provides accurate information regarding the distance the elongated member (34) travels. The displacement measuring device (32) is used in an iterative manner with the calibration system (20) for the purpose of the calibration of a robotic device (22).
