Abstract: A jig that allows a user to register a digital design to features on the jig such that a tool with image-based positioning capability, based on the features, can accurately perform a task on a workpiece based on the digital design. The jig may include elements to allow a user to accurately align the jig relative to features, such as corners or edges, of the workpiece. When working with workpieces having a similar geometry, the jig may be moved from one workpiece to the next to allow the user to perform different tasks, using different digital designs, without needing to reconfigure the jig or perform additional set-up on each new workpiece.

Abstract: Workstation for performing a task on a workpiece using a tool. Some implementations of the invention allow an adjustable shelf to be used to position a workpiece on the workstation. Some implementations of the invention include a support bar for partially supporting a tool as the task is performed on a workpiece coupled to the workstation. Some implementations of the invention allow a workpiece to be positioned at a reference location or orientation relative to the workstation. Some implementations of the invention allow a tool to perform an action based on determining the position of the tool relative to the workstation using computer vision techniques to analyze a feature of the workstation.
