Abstract
A trajectory planning apparatus including a joint axis classification unit for classifying a plurality of joint axes of a robot into axis groups, according to joint axis classification information for classifying into the axis groups including at least a path search axis group, a path search unit for searching for a path of an angle of the joint axis classified into the path search axis group that minimizes an evaluation function for evaluating a planed trajectory, based on trajectory start point information representing a posture of the robot at a start point of the planed trajectory and trajectory endpoint information representing a posture of the robot at an end point of the planned trajectory, and an axis group angle calculation unit for calculating an angle of the joint axis classified into each axis group other than the path search axis group during the search of the path.
