System and device for welding training
TLDR
In this article, a welding training system includes a position detecting system configured to detect a distance between a position detector and objects within a field of view of the position detector, and to produce a map corresponding to the objects.Abstract:
A system and device for welding training. In one example, a welding training system includes a position detecting system configured to detect a distance between the position detecting system and objects within a field of view of the position detecting system, and to produce a map corresponding to the objects. The welding training system also includes a markers configured to be coupled to a device of the welding training system. Furthermore, the markers are configured to be detected by the position detecting system.read more
