    摘要: A teaching device includes an image acquisition unit which acquires an image including a manipulation target object which is linked to operations of an arm of a robot and a teaching position of the manipulation target object, a movement control unit which controls the arm to move the manipulation target object in the image to the teaching position, and a teaching information acquisition unit which acquires a state of the arm in a state in which the manipulation target object in the image is present at the teaching position as teaching information.

    摘要: A robot control device calculates an evaluation value, based on a partial point cloud included in a plurality of areas corresponding to a gripping unit of a robot for gripping a target object, of a three-dimensional point cloud representing a three-dimensional shape of a surface of the target object. The robot control device calculates a position and an attitude of the gripping unit taken when the gripping unit is made to grip the target object, based on the calculated evaluation value. The robot control device causes the gripping unit to grip the target object, based on the position and the attitude of the gripping unit thus calculated.

    摘要: A robot system includes an arm with a plurality of joints, the arm being configured to assume a first position and a second position, an end effector attached to the arm, the end effector having a specific position, and a force detector configured to detect a force or a torque applied to or generated by the arm or the end effector, and a robot control apparatus configured to receive an output value from the force detector to change the arm from the first position to the second position while the end effector remains in the specific position, and store the second position of the arm in a memory so as to relate the second position of the arm with the specific position of the end effector.
