Abstract
In a device and method for programming an industrial robot using a simulation program, control commands are issued by a handheld programming device and these commands are visualized on an image surface as movement and/or processing operations by the robot on the basis of data of the robot. An object to be processed is also displayed on the image surface and a three-dimensional image of the robot and the object is presented.

A method for programming an industrial robot using a simulation program, the method comprising the acts of:
- outputting control commands from a handheld programming device and visualizing the control commands as movement processes or machining operations by the robot on an image surface, based upon robot data,
- displaying an object to be processed on the image surface, and
- presenting a three-dimensional image of the robot and the object to be processed on the image surface.
A method for programming an industrial robot using a simulation program, the method comprising the acts of:
- outputting control commands from a handheld programming device and visualizing the control commands as movement processes and machining operations by the robot on an image surface, based upon robot data,
- displaying an object to be processed on the image surface, and
- presenting a three-dimensional image of the robot and the object to be processed on the image surface.
A device for programming an industrial robot using a simulation program, comprising:
- a handheld programming device configured to output control commands for the robot;
- and
- a stereoscopic projection unit configured to display the robot and an object to be processed by the robot on a projection surface.
