Abstract

Provided is a robot system including a robot, a distance image sensor that temporally continuously acquires, from above an operating space of the robot, distance image information around the operating space, and an image processing device that processes the acquired distance image information, the image processing device defining, around the operating space, a monitoring area that includes a boundary for enabling entrance into the operating space from the outside, including a storing unit that stores reference distance image information, and detecting, based on the distance image information acquired by the distance image sensor and the reference distance image information stored in the storing unit, whether a stationary object present in the monitoring area is blocking the boundary in a visual field of the distance image sensor.
