Abstract
A method for machining a workpiece by a numerical control (NC) machine constructs a model of a scene from one or multiple images including at least a part of the workpiece and a part of the NC machine and registers a model of the NC machine with the model of the scene to produce a first transformation between a coordinate system of the model of the scene and a coordinate system of the NC machine. The method also detects the workpiece in the model of the scene to produce a second transformation between the coordinate system of the model of the scene and a coordinate system of the workpiece and combines the first and the second transformations to register the coordinate system of the workpiece with the coordinate system of the NC machine. The registered workpiece is machined with a tool of the NC machine.
