1. A storage and order-picking system for storing and picking piece goods, comprising:

  • a manually operated work station arranged in a fixed working area, in which an operator manipulates the piece goods with his/her hands in a default manipulation manner, which is communicated to the operator visually, or audibly, wherein the operator moves the piece goods within the working area;

    a motion-sensor system configured to detect the operators'"'"'s motions within the working area of the work station, and to convert same into corresponding motion signals; and

    a computing unit, which is connected to the motion-sensor system and which is configured to convert the motion signals into corresponding trajectories in a virtual space, which represents an image of the working area in real space, wherein the converted trajectories are compared to reference trajectories, or reference volumina, in the virtual space, which is modeled in accordance with the real space as a reference model, the computing unit being further configured to generate and output control signals, based on the comparison, which indicate a correct or wrong performance of the default manipulation manner to the operator.
