Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/158750
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system and method that includes a camera, a display and a processor wherein the camera captures a series of environmental images of an object, device or structure as the object, device or structure is assembled or constructed and then environmental image sis compared with a reference image. In exemplary embodiments, a reference standard image is displayed and, a user proceeds to manipulate objects to try to conform to the displayed referenced image. Next, environmental images arc captured and a processor then compares the detected images against the reference standard and provides feedback to the user in the form of output that reflects compliance with the standard or a deviation from the standard. The feedback is provided, inter alia on a display panel so that the user can either confirm that the assembly is in conformance with the standard or see a graphical representation of how the assembly deviates from the standard. The present invention may be used as a teaching and instructional device, can be used as device to ensure quality control during manufacturing or assembly operations and may be used as an amusement device.
