  • Pose determination in parallel kinematics systems with reference markers
    Patent number: 12623357
    Abstract: A parallel kinematic system comprises mutually distinguishable markings which are attached in a marking region to the parallel kinematic system. The marking region is a region of the kinematic system that moves along with the pose of the kinematic system. The markings can be attached in a direction at a distance that ensures that n markings are always fully visible in the direction, and the pose of the parallel kinematic system can be determined based on an image that is captured by the camera and contains at least n markings in the direction. The markings can be attached in a direction at a distance that ensures that n or more markings are fully visible in the direction, the markings are attached in different planes, and the pose of the parallel kinematic system can be determined based on an image that is captured by the camera and contains at least any n markings in the direction.
