  • tracking systems relating to the invention are particularly well suited to recognize locators and structures attached to the objects, to determine the spatial positions of the locators and structures and to determine therefrom the spatial positions of the objects.
  • the tracking system is capable of detecting all or part of the geometric shape of objects provided with suitable structures. Furthermore, it sets the geometric shape of the objects in relation to the locators attached to the object. [103] An object spatial position is determined either with the locators or with the structure. The determination of the object spatial position can also be done with the locators and the structure.
  • the present mobile tracking system may be directly attached to an object, such as a tool, instrument, or other body part. This has the significant advantage that the spatial position of this body is thus known without further measurement by means of the tracking system alone.
  • Another advantage is the fact that the number of required bodies in the work area is reduced.
  • only the tool equipped with the mobile tracking system which, for example, is oriented on a structure fastened to a body part, is in use.
  • the mobile tracking system is advantageously integrated in or on a working instrument, such as a drill.

  • the tracking system can thus, as already mentioned, also be mounted on a robot, in particular on a robot arm, and only make measurements as needed.
  • the present mobile tracking system could at least temporarily also be mounted on a tripod for a long-term measurement of the object spatial positions in the work area.
  • Important characteristics of the mobile tracking system such as the measuring volume, the range of the measuring distances or the measuring accuracy, are defined among other things by the arrangement and characteristics of the cameras, the locators or the structures.
  • the measuring accuracy, the measuring volume and / or the range of the measuring distances substantially influence the geometry of the mobile tracking system and the arrangement and characteristics of the cameras.
  • Small measurement volumes and small ranges of measurement distances typically allow tracking systems that have small geometric dimensions.
  • large measurement volumes and large ranges of measurement distances typically result in geometrically larger tracking systems. For the same measuring accuracies and with the same camera technology, the effort for larger tracking systems is significantly higher than for smaller tracking systems.
  • a further advantage is that the manufacturing accuracy of the locators together with their attachment can be reduced since the position of the locators with respect to the structure is measured with the mobile tracking system.
  • the object of the invention is also achieved by a method in which on a body, such as on a workpiece, a first structure with patterns and / or a first locator and at least one further structure with patterns and / or at least one other Locator is arranged, in which by means of the device of the invention is determined during a first measurement, the relative spatial position and / or the relative spatial orientation of the structures with the patterns and / or locators to each other, in which subsequently the body is processed, in which during at least one further measurement, again a relative spatial position and / or a relative spatial orientation of the structures with the patterns and / or the locators with respect to one another are determined, and in which the determined spatial positions and / or the spatial orientations from the two measurements are compared with one another.
  • a body or partial areas of a body in particular with regard to a spatial position, can be compared particularly precisely before and after a work procedure.
  • a further variant of the method advantageously provides that the processed body is processed stepwise in such a way until the spatial position and / or the spatial orientation of the structures with the patterns and / or the locators from the first measurement with the spatial position and / or Spatial orientation of the structures with the patterns and / or the locators from the second measurement suitably match.
  • the spatial position and / or the spatial orientation are preferably determined solely on the basis of the existing patterns by means of the mobile tracking system.
  • the body or parts of the body can be readjusted to the initial state after a successful operation with the utmost precision.
  • a variant that is preferred in the medical field provides for an operator to machine a joint or another body part of a patient. If, for example, a part of a joint of a patient is replaced by a prosthesis or a bone is processed in such a way that an implant is inserted between two bone parts, it is advantageous if at least two structures with patterns suitable on the sides of the body are used before the start of the actual main procedure Joint are fixed and the relative spatial position of the structures to each other based on the pattern by means of the mobile tracking system is determined. Between the two structures, the surgeon replaces a joint part with a prosthesis. After the main intervention, the spatial position of the structures is determined again and compared with the previously determined spatial position. Thus, the surgeon immediately after the main intervention, the demonstrable certainty that the joint or parts thereof is or are again located in its original position or come very close to this initial position to a medically sufficient extent.
