Abstract
A specimen of an artificial marker is arranged on an object, the position of which is to be determined. The artificial marker defines a nominal marker pattern with nominal characteristics. The specimen embodies the nominal marker pattern with individual characteristics. One or more images of the specimen are captured while the specimen is arranged on the object. An image representation of the specimen is analyzed using a data set. The data set comprises measured data values representing the individual characteristics as individually measured on the first specimen. Position values representing a 3D position of the specimen relative to a coordinate system are determined. A 3D position of the object is determined based on the position values of the specimen.
