Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a gluing method and an associated gluing system. The gluing method comprises: enabling a first linear laser to project a first laser line to scan a surface of an object in a first direction, so as to obtain first tomography information of the surface; guiding a gluing nozzle to move along a planned path on the surface based on the first tomography information; and enabling the gluing nozzle to dispense glue along the planned path while the gluing nozzle is moving along the planned path in the first direction; wherein the first linear laser is configured to move together with the gluing nozzle and the first laser line is located in front of the gluing nozzle when viewed from the first direction.
