Abstract
A method includes calibrating a first path of a joint of a workpiece of a welding system relative to a component, determining a first set of welding parameters of a welding torch based at least in part on a tracked position and a tracked orientation of the welding torch along the first path of the joint during a first live-arc welding operation, calibrating a second path of the joint of the workpiece relative to the component, determining a second set of welding parameters of the welding torch based at least in part the tracked position and orientation of the welding torch along the second path of the joint during a second live-arc welding operation, and displaying at least one of the first and second sets of welding parameters on a display. The second path is disposed at least partially over the first path.

11. A method comprising:
-
calibrating a first path of a joint of a workpiece of a welding system relative to a component of the welding system; detecting, via one or more cameras of the welding system, three or more visual markers coupled to the welding torch, wherein a position and an orientation of a welding torch are tracked at least in part on the detection of the three or more visual markers; determining a first set of welding parameters of a welding torch based at least in part on a first tracked position and a first tracked orientation of the welding torch along the first path of the joint during a simulated welding operation; determining a second set of welding parameters of a welding torch based at least in part on a second tracked position and a second tracked orientation of the welding torch along the first path of the joint during a first live-arc welding operation of a plurality of live-arc welding operations; calibrating a second path of the joint of the workpiece relative to the component of the welding system; determining a third set of welding parameters of the welding torch based at least in part on a third tracked position and a third tracked orientation of the welding torch along a second path of the joint during a second live-arc welding operation of the plurality of live-arc welding operations, wherein the second path is disposed at least partially over the first path; and displaying at least one of the first set of welding parameters, the second set of welding parameters, and the third set of welding parameters on a display. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A system comprising:
-
one or more cameras configured to detect a first set of visual markers coupled to a welding device and a second set of visual markers coupled to a calibration tool; a workpiece comprising a joint; a display; and a controller coupled to the one or more cameras and to the display, wherein the controller is configured to; calibrate a first weld path along the joint based at least in part on detection of the second set of visual markers when the calibration tool interfaces with the joint; determine a first set of welding parameters of the welding torch based at least in part on a first tracked position and a first tracked orientation of the welding torch along the first path of the joint during a first live-arc welding operation; calibrate a second weld path along the joint based at least in part on detection of the second set of visual markers when the calibration tool interfaces with the joint, wherein the second weld path is disposed at least partially over the first path; determine a second set of welding parameters of the welding torch based at least in part on a second tracked position and a second tracked orientation of the welding torch along the second path of the joint during a second live-arc welding operation; and display at least one of the first set of welding parameters and the second set of welding parameters on the display. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
