Abstract
A measurement system includes a plurality of reflectors of a robot, a measurement apparatus having a laser head which emits a laser beam toward the reflectors and which receives a reflected light from the reflectors, a head driving device which changes orientation of the laser head, and a robot control apparatus which controls the robot based on the calibration operation program and which sequentially places the distal end portion of the robot at a plurality of measurement positions for conducting calibration. The robot control apparatus conducts a head drive control process of receiving controller coordinate data of any one of the plurality of reflectors, which is used at the time of sequentially placing the distal end portion of the robot at plurality of measurement positions, and sending a control signal for changing the orientation of the laser head to the head driving device by using the received controller coordinate data.
