  • Patent number: 11460832
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing control of machining of workpieces in a manufacturing hall that includes providing a plurality of image acquisition devices configured to acquire image sequences of allocated observation areas, identifying an object to be tracked in a first image of a first image sequence using at least one object feature, determining positions of the object feature in images of subsequent image sequences, determining a current position of the object by localizing the object feature in a temporally current image of one of the image sequences, and assigning the position of the object feature in the temporally current image to a current position in the observation area of the image sequence that includes the temporally current image, and integrating the determined current position of the object into the manufacturing control of the hall.

  • Publication number: 20220108471
    Abstract: A method for coupling a relative coordinate system of a relative automatic position finding system to an absolute coordinate system of an absolute localization system includes capturing optically identifiable identifiers of the localization system using a light sensor of a mobile apparatus of the relative automatic position finding system. The method further includes ascertaining a relative position for each of the captured optically identifiable identifiers in the relative coordinate system of the relative automatic position finding system, retrieving absolute positions of the optically identifiable identifiers in the absolute coordinate system, determining a position of the light sensor in the absolute coordinate system, and coupling, based on the determined position of the light sensor, the relative coordinate system to the absolute coordinate system.
