An arrangement for the model-based calibration of a mechanism in a workspace with calibration objects that are either directed laser radiation patterns together with an associated laser radiation-pattern generator or radiation-pattern position sensors. Functional operation groups made up of at least one laser radiation pattern and at least one position sensor interact in such a way when a radiation pattern impinges on the sensor that measured sensor position information values are passed along to computing devices that determine the parameters of a mathematical mechanism model with the aid of these measured values. In the process, at least two different functional operation groups are used to calibrate the mechanism, and at least two calibration objects from different functional operation groups are rigidly connected to one another.
A device for model-based calibration of a mechanism, said device comprised of functional operation groups that each include a set of calibration objects made up of one or more lasers, each emitting an individual laser beam or a bundle of individual laser beams, one or more laser beams as projected light patterns and one or more sensors, each with a two dimensional light sensitive surface, wherein, when one of the one or more laser beams strikes one of the one or more sensors, said one of the one or more sensors transmits measured values with position information of one or more laser light images formed by the projected light patterns on the two-dimensional light-sensitive surface to computing devices that determine parameters of a mathematical mechanism model with the aid of said measured values,
