Abstract: System (1) for positioning a virtual dummy (3) according to the positioning of segments (20) of a physical dummy (2) manipulated by a user of the system (1), such that the positioning of these segments (20) is effected by markers (21) in the physical dummy (2) defining the segments (20), the markers (21) providing the coordinates corresponding with the degrees of freedom of such segments (20), the degrees of freedom of the segments (20) in the physical dummy (2) directly mapping the positioning in the virtual dummy (3), by generating the degrees of freedom of the physical dummy (2) and transferring them directly to the virtual dummy (3). The invention also refers to a method for positioning a virtual dummy (3) according to the positioning of segments (20) of a physical dummy (2).

Abstract: A system and method for enhancing assembly of components in an environment using augmented reality techniques. The system includes: an input module that obtains both virtual data and real data taken in real-time of the component that is to be assembled by an operator and of the environment; and an augmented reality module, in which a position and orientation of the data is determined for the positioning of the virtual data over the real data by a plurality of markers, the virtual data and the real data being combined in augmented reality in real-time.
