1. A system for providing an individual operation instruction from a controller to operators working in an operation area,the system including:
- an optical ID provided for each of the operators, the optical ID having at least a pair of light emitting sections for outputting individual ID data of an individual operator by a light emission signal from the light emitting sections, the optical ID moving together with the individual operator; and
a plurality of cameras arranged along a pathway of the operators in the operation area, for determining the ID data, a position of the optical ID, and a direction of the pair of light emission sections by receiving the light emission signal from the optical ID, whereinthe ID data, the position, and the direction of the individual operator are identified based on a signal from the cameras for allowing the controller to output the operation instruction to the individual operator based on the identified ID data, the position, and the direction of the individual operator.

Abstract
An optical ID having a pair of light emitting sections (21, 22) is provided on a head set (18) which is mounted on the head of an operator, and ID data is transmitted by a light emitting signal. A high-speed camera is provided on a ceiling of a pathway, the ID data and the position of the operator are identified by the light emitting signal, and the direction of the operator is obtained by the direction of the pair of light emitting sections.

7. A method of providing an individual operation instruction from a controller to operators working in an operation area, the method including the steps of:
-
providing an optical ID for each of the operators, the optical ID having at least a pair of light emitting sections for outputting individual ID data of an individual operator by a light emission signal from the light emitting sections; arranging a plurality of cameras along a pathway of operators in the operation area, for determining the ID data, a position of the optical ID, and a direction of the pair of light emission sections by receiving the light emission signal from the optical ID; moving the optical ID together with the individual operator; and identifying the ID data, the position, and the direction of the individual operator based on a signal from the cameras, and providing the operation instruction to the individual operator by the controller based on the identified ID data, the position, and the direction of the individual operator.
