Abstract
A robot system includes a movable component with a mark thereon, a control unit that controls the movable component in a three-dimensional coordinate system on the basis of control information, a digital camera that outputs image data by imaging a range of movement of the mark, and a calibrator that creates a transformation parameter for correlating a two-dimensional coordinate system of the image data with the three-dimensional coordinate system on the basis of the image data obtained by imaging the mark at different positions and the control information.
