Summary: | A method for programming an industrial robot. The robot is taught a path having waypoints located on or in the vicinity of an object. An image of the object is obtained. Information is obtained about the position of a pointer pointing at points. The position of the points relative to the object is determined. A point being pointed out is stored as a waypoint. A graphical representation is generated of the stored waypoint and the point being pointed out. A view is displayed including the object and the graphical representation. A system includes a pointer for pointing out points on or in the vicinity of the object, a position determiner determines the position of the points relative to the object, a camera delivers an image of the object and the pointer, a graphical generator generates graphics, a display displays a view including the object and graphical representation, and an activator. |
