Abstract
An imaging unit, a control parameter generation unit, a control unit, and a drive unit are provided. The imaging unit captures an image including two objects. The control parameter generation unit feeds information of the captured image including the two objects into an input layer of a neural network, and outputs a position control amount for controlling the positional relation of between the two objects as an output layer of the neural network. The control unit controls current or voltage to control the positional relation between the two objects by using the outputted position control amount. The drive unit changes a position of one of the two objects by using the current or the voltage. Here, the control parameter generation unit selects the neural network from a plurality of neural networks. Therefore, even if there are differences between objects or errors in the positional relationship between the two objects, alignment can be performed more accurately.
