- a user's hand 305 may touch a location of touch-sensitive surface 316 that corresponds to a predetermined repair program.
- the central processing unit 310 can then generate a user interaction signal which corresponds to the 3-D data records to be read out from the 3-D database 320.
- the central processing unit 310 can generate the user interaction signal depending on the ASCII signal of the voice input unit 323 received via the connecting line 374.
- the central processing unit 310 can read out at least one audio data record via the bidirectional data bus 366 and generate an audio auxiliary instruction signal corresponding to the audio data record and send this to the audio output unit 326 via the connecting line 372.
- the central processing unit 310 can also read out a video data record from the auxiliary instruction memory 322 via the bidirectional data bus 366 and generate a video auxiliary instruction signal corresponding to the video data record.
- the central processing unit 310 is designed to generate an auxiliary information image signal from the camera image signal received on the input side via the connecting line 350, the 3-D auxiliary instruction signal received via the bidirectional connecting line 362 and from the video auxiliary instruction signal such that the auxiliary information image signal represents an image in which graphic information or text information is superimposed on the image of an object.
- the central processing unit 310 can send the auxiliary information image signal via the connecting line 368 to the image display unit 314 on the output side.
- the camera 312 can be connected to the central processing unit 310 via a radio data interface.
- the radio data interface is designed to transmit a camera image signal wirelessly.
- the image display unit 314 can accordingly be connected to the central processing unit 310 via a radio data interface.
