Abstract
The present invention provides a collaborative robot system in which a robot and a worker share tasks and perform the tasks. The collaborative robot system including: a work-time-measurement-unit that measures work time for locations assigned to the worker and the robot; a difference-at-increase/decrease-prediction-unit that predicts a difference between the work time of the worker and the robot, when the number of locations assigned to the worker is increased or decreased; an assigned-location-adjustment-unit that increases or decreases the number of locations so that the difference in the work time becomes smaller, in a case in which a predicted-difference-value based on the work time of the worker and the robot, when the number of locations assigned to the worker is maintained is greater than the predicted-difference-value; and an assigned-location-indication-unit that indicates the locations assigned to the worker after the number of assigned locations is increased or decreased.
