Abstract
A method for identifying a manipulator by means of a portable terminal device, wherein the portable terminal device comprises a 3D camera. The method operates to detect a three-dimensional image of at least one part of the manipulator to be identified by means of the 3D camera of the portable terminal device. An actual status of the manipulator is determined based on the three-dimensional image detected. The 3D camera is a plenoptic camera, and the detected three-dimensional image comprises a four-dimensional light field of at least one part of the manipulator to be identified.
