Abstract

See full text

A method of identifying an item on a surface of a workpiece is disclosed. An optical device identifies an item on the surface of a workpiece. An item identification system includes a light projector and a photogrammetry system. One of the light projector and the photogrammetry system generates a three-dimensional coordinate system within the work cell. One of the light projector and the photogrammetry system identifies a location of the surface of the workpiece within the three-dimensional coordinates system. The controller calculates geometric location of the item on the surface of the work piece in the three-dimensional coordinate system as identified by the optical device. The controller signals the light projector to project a beam of light onto the surface of the workpiece identifying a disposition of the item disposed upon the surface of the workpiece.
