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 surfaces,
- wherein a position of an operator and a change in position are detected, and from the position and the change in position, an adjustment of an angle of view and the image content with regard to the perspectives and distance is derived.
