The present disclosure discloses a robot control method as well as an apparatus, and a robot using the same. The method includes: obtaining a human pose image; obtaining pixel information of key points in the human pose image; obtaining three-dimensional positional information of key points of a human arm according to the pixel information of the preset key points; obtaining a robotic arm kinematics model of a robot; obtaining an angle of each joint in the robotic arm kinematics model according to the three-dimensional positional information of the key points of the human arm and the robotic arm kinematics model; and controlling an arm of the robot to perform a corresponding action according to the angle of each joint. The control method does not require a three-dimensional stereo camera to collect three-dimensional coordinates of a human body, which reduces the cost to a certain extent.
