Abstract
The invention relates to a method and a system for controlling a robot, which non-simultaneously shares a working space with another robot. On the basis of a determined residual period, in which the working space remains occupied, the path planning of a robot is adjusted in a cycle time-optimized manner, in order to avoid a deceleration at the working space limit and a wait for the working space to be vacated.
