Abstract
A method for controlling the application of a patch can include the following steps: positioning a patch on a surface to be covered by means of a gripper and with or without partial overlapping with adjacent patches; acquiring by means of an optical control means at least one image of the positioned patch; detecting defects in the positioning of the patch by identifying differences in the thickness of the patch on the surface to be covered based on the at least one image of the positioned patch; and mapping the defects in the positioning of the patch.
