Abstract
An operation device includes operation input circuitry that operates a robot having a leading end and a multi-articular arm that changes a position and a posture of the leading end, a device posture sensor that detects a posture of the operation input circuitry in a first coordinate system for controlling the robot, and processing circuitry that rotates a second coordinate system rotatable relative to the first coordinate system based on the posture of the operation input device, generates motion command for the leading end of the robot in the second coordinate system based on input operation into the operation input circuitry, converts the motion command into a first-coordinate-system motion command for the leading end of the robot in the first coordinate system, outputs the first-coordinate-system motion command for controlling the robot based on the first-coordinate-system motion command, and regulates rotation of the second coordinate system about at least one axis.
