Abstract:
In a method and apparatus for performing an analysis [16] and other activities using one or more two-or three-dimensional representational images [2], presenting a two-or three-dimensional representational image [2] containing analytical information to assist in the analytical process. One or more two-or three-dimensional representational images [2] are created, e.g., using standard photography, holography or computer imaging, and are placed in a positioner for use by the analyst. The representational images are illuminated using a light source [32] and the analyst utilizes the information released from the representational image to perform an analysis.
Abstract:
In a method and apparatus (Fig. 1) for performing commercial and other activities using one or more two- or three-dimensional representational images (Fig. 1b, 11), superimposing a two- or three-dimensional representational image, containing an image of the workpiece in an advanced state of assembly, with a surface or onto the actual workpiece, and utilizing the superimposed representational image to assist in the assembly of the workpiece. One or more two- or three-dimensional representational images are created, e.g., using standard photography, holography or computer imaging, and are placed in a frame integrated within the assembly line of the manufacturing facility. The workpiece is positioned in relation to location of the representational image, such that the representational image may be superimposed onto the workpiece. An assembly operation is then performed using the superimposed representational image as a template.
