There is provided a teaching apparatus that teaches a robot, in particular an industrial robot, a task by direct teaching. The teaching apparatus includes a wearable display that displays information in a worker's visual field, an acquisition section that acquires position and posture data capable of specifying a position and a posture of an industrial robot, and a production section that produces information to be displayed on the wearable display. When a worker operates the robot using the teaching apparatus, the apparatus produces state information that indicates at least one of a position and a posture of the robot relative to a reference object located around the robot, based on position and posture data as acquired and displays the produced information on the wearable display. There is also provided a teaching method having teaching functions equivalent to those of the apparatus.

Teaching apparatus and teaching method for robots

A robot operation apparatus includes touch panel, touch operation detecting unit, action command generating unit, and selection operation detecting unit. The action command generating unit is capable of performing an operation determining process and an action command generating process. The operation determining process is a process for determining a drive axis or an action mode of a robot to be operated based on the selection operation detected by the selection operation detecting unit, and when a touch operation detected by the touch operation detecting unit is a drag operation, determining a movement amount of the drag operation. The action command generating process is a process for determining a movement amount of the robot based on the movement amount determined by in the operation determining process, and generating an action command for moving the robot at the drive axis or in the action mode to be operated by the movement amount.

Robot operation apparatus, robot system, and robot operation program

A robot operation apparatus includes a touch panel, a display, an operation detecting unit capable of detecting a touch operation or a drag operation on the touch panel, a motion command generating unit that generates a motion command for operating a robot, and a display control unit that controls display content of the display. The motion command generating unit performs a motion speed determining process in which a motion speed of the robot is determined based on a slide distance that is a distance from a start position of a drag operation detected by the operation detecting unit to a current position. The display control unit performs a speed graphics display process in which a speed graphics in which the slide distance and the motion speed of the robot are correlated and that changes in aspect in accompaniment with changes in the slide distance is displayed on the display.

Apparatus for operating robots

A robot operation apparatus comprising: a touch panel that receives input of a touch operation and a movement operation from a user; an operation detector that detects the touch operation and the movement operation to the touch panel; and a behavior command generator that generates a behavior command operating a robot based on a detection result of the operation detector. The behavior command generator performs a behavior speed determination process that determines a behavior speed of the robot based on an operation speed of the movement operation, when the operation detector detects the movement operation to an operation graphic provided on the touch panel.
