Abstract

An object gripping system includes a position and orientation measurement unit configured to measure a position and an orientation of at least one target object based on an image obtained by capturing the at least one target object. A selection unit is further provided to select at least one holdable target object based on the position and orientation. A determination unit determines, as an object to be held, a holdable target object based on a priority set, when assembling the holdable target object to an assembly destination object, and a controlling unit controls a holding unit to hold the object to be held, which is determined by the determination unit.
