Abstract

A surface following control method for a robot is used for controlling the robot including a hand part, an arm part, and a controller. In this surface following control method for the robot, processes including a normal direction identification process and a work tool posture control process are performed. In the normal direction identification process, a normal direction of a virtual shape at a virtual position where the work tool attached to the hand part contacts the virtual shape which is a shape represented by the formula is identified. In the work tool control process, the work tool attached to the hand part is brought into contact with the target workpiece at a corresponding position which is a position corresponding to the virtual position on the surface of the target workpiece, in a posture along the normal direction identified in the normal direction identification process.
