The invention is addressed to the as- sembly of automobiles and aircraft done with reconfigurable modular and "intelli- gent" tooling fixtures. Much of the ca- pability of the system is brought by op- tical or other non-contact sensing means (900, 901) incorporated with the tools to provide information on part location, tool- ing detail location, and automation which is used in the performance of the work. A preferred version of the invention uses 3-dimensional stereo and/or other electro- optical ranging and feature location sen- sors (900, 901) to perform measurements of the location of critical features of as- sembly tools and parts including detecting abnormal features such as missing holes or welds. The computer system (80) associ- ated with the sensors (900, 901) generates a database of part conditions before, during and after a working or assembly function. The database is used to continuously im- prove the process and feed data to related processes.
