Identifying process for like members of pair, e.g. of socks involves marking individual socks, identifying sock marking and arranging them as identified

摘要

The identifying process involves marking the corresponding articles of clothing, e.g. socks (s1a, s1b), with marks (b1, b2) which unambiguously identify them as belonging to each other. These markings may differ in shape, color and other properties. They may differ from each other and it may be possible to put them in different places. They can be identified by the sensor (c2) of a reader (c1).
