A stationary data processing device communicates with a mobile data processing device, such as a client in the field of augmented-reality techniques in an automation system, or a production machine, or a machine tool or parts thereof. The stationary data processing device includes a server for communication with a browser on the mobile data processing device; an information broker for providing context-related information; legacy systems that contain and store information; and an information model that represents the information space and that allows navigation within the information and access to the information by the information broker independent of the legacy systems. The information broker utilizes the actual context, especially location, work situation, EA devices used and the information model.

System and method for communication between a mobile data processing device and a stationary data processing device

A method and a device for determining tracking configurations for augmented reality applications are provided. A determination is automatically carried out based on a list of modules provided in a real environment and known tracking data of individual modules of the list in terms of an online operation at an operator of a system.

Method and device for generating tracking configurations for augmented reality applications

A method and a device for position-dependent compliance compensation in a machine tool is disclosed. The compliance of the machine tool is derived at a position of a tool of the machine tool from machine data stored in memory, a machining force acting on the tool during a machining process at this position is determined, and at least one machining parameter that has an influence on the machining process is derived at this position in dependence on the derived compliance and the machining force so as to counteract a displacement of the tool with respect to a desired position caused by the compliance of the machine tool and the machining force. This optimizes the machining time and/or contour fidelity when machining a workpiece with a machine tool.

Position-dependent compliance compensation in a machine tool

The invention relates to a system for determining the position of a user and/or a moving device by means of tracking methods, in particular for augmented reality applications, with an interface () to integrate at least one sensor type and/or data generator () of a tracking method, a configuration unit () to describe communication between the tracking methods and/or tracking algorithms and at least one processing unit () to calculate the position of the user and/or the moving device based on the data supplied by the tracking methods and/or tracking algorithms.

System and method for determining a position, in particular for augmented reality applications

The invention relates to a device and a method for determination of location information of a workpiece. To enable rapid calibration of a relative position of the workpiece () in relation to a tool provided for processing said workpiece, it is proposed that the device

Device and method for workpiece calibration

The invention relates to a system and a method for combined use of different types of display with system-controlled, context-dependent information display, having a mobile data processing apparatus and having a plurality of interaction devices which are operated in parallel by the mobile data processing apparatus for display and/or input, and having a higher-level system for monitoring the interaction devices such that at least one respectively suitable output display type is selected as a function of the input parameters.
