Abstract
A robot includes a first driving source, a second driving source, an output portion to which both rotation of the first driving source and rotation of the second driving source are transmitted, and a control device configured to execute a first process and a second process. In the first process, the control device controls the first driving source and the second driving source such that when the output portion is rotated toward a predetermined direction, a rotational direction of the output portion is limited to the predetermined direction. In the second process, the control device controls the first driving source and the second driving source such that when the output portion is rotated toward a predetermined direction, the output portion is able to rotate toward a direction opposite to the predetermined direction.
