A communication system includes a first vehicle and a second vehicle, with the first vehicle configured to capture a video and recognize a foreign object on a road from the video, and can acquire an imaging location where the video is captured, an imaging direction in which the video is captured, and transmit information. The second vehicle receives the information, acquires a traveling schedule direction of the second vehicle, and displays a video. The imaging location and the imaging direction are added to the video. The first vehicle acquires a time at which the video is captured, and the second vehicle acquires a present time, and the video is displayed when an imaging time of a presently displayed video is earlier than the present time by a given time or more despite mismatch between the acquired traveling schedule direction and the received imaging direction.

Communication system, control method, and storage medium

A control apparatus includes a control unit that controls a first motor and a second motor. The control unit controls a rotation angle of a driven unit using one of the first motor and the second motor based on a direction of disturbance and controls, using the other of the first motor and the second motor, backlash removal from a decelerating unit configured to transmit an output of the first motor or the second motor to the driven unit.

Control apparatus and method, and motor control system

A force detector provided between a robot arm and a robot hand detects forces Fx, Fy, and Fz. A robot controller performs a filtering process for the forces Fx and Fy by a first low-pass filter of a cutoff frequency F, moves the robot hand so that the forces Fx and Fy become smaller, corrects a trajectory of the robot arm, performs a filtering process for the force Fz by a second low-pass filter of a cutoff frequency Fhaving a frequency higher than the cutoff frequency F, performs a threshold value determination for the force Fz, and stops the movement of the robot hand when the force Fz exceeds a threshold value during a fitting operation.
