Abstract: Provided is an intrusion detection method that achieves both safety of the worker and high work productivity of the robot. A safety monitoring system includes: a light projector in which a plurality of first light emitting elements that emit light of a first wavelength and a plurality of second light emitting elements that emit light of a second wavelength different from the first wavelength are arranged; an imaging part capturing an image of the light projector; an imaging processing part performing intrusion detection of an object based on the image captured by the imaging part; and a robot control part generating a signal for controlling movement of a robot from a result of performing the intrusion detection. The light projector is arranged on a boundary line of danger prediction for the movement of the robot. The first wavelength is visible light.

Abstract: A control system (1) includes: a control device (100) that controls a robot (200); a three-dimensional sensor (300) that acquires positional information of a worker and the robot (200), which are included in a viewing-field area in a three-dimensional space; and a support device (400) that provides a user interface (411) for virtually setting a cooperation region in which the worker and the robot (200) are allowed to work. The control device (100) controls stopping or the speed of the robot (200) on the basis of whether or not the position of the worker or the robot (200) calculated on the basis of the positional information is included in the cooperation region, which is set by using the user interface (411), as well as the relative positional relationship between the worker and the robot (200) calculated on the basis of the positional information.
