Abstract
In an arrangement and method for determining a spatial position of an object on a thermal basis, an imaging thermal sensor detects a thermal image of the environment and outputs corresponding signals to a processing unit coupled to the sensor. The processing unit accepts the signals, evaluates the image in view of a thermal marking, and determines the spatial position of the object dependent on the marking. The arrangement and the method can be employed in combination with a robot for orientation and for travel path control of the robot.
