Abstract
A continuous robot control system executes control which brings a continuous robot into a state where a most distal bending portion (leading bending portion) bends at a third bending angle between a bending angle b (second bending angle) and a bending angle e (first bending angle) with respect to a reference axis while a base is being located at a position between a position c (third position) and a position e (first position), when the distal bending portion is extracted from a tube by making the continuous robot move backward, after the distal bending portion is inserted into an inner portion of the tube by making the continuous robot move forward.
