Abstract
An optical position determination and identification system is for environments having a multiplicity of identically constructed objects. The system includes: a mobile image acquisition unit; and texture elements that are configured to be applied onto the objects. Each of the texture elements has a pattern that respectively comprises pseudorandom deviations from a predetermined basic pattern, which are not visible with the naked eye at a distance of 1 m. The image acquisition unit is configured to identify the texture elements uniquely with the aid of their pseudorandom deviations.
