To provide a robot controller enabling a robot to efficiently execute a plurality of tasks while making the robot accurately detect obstacles.
A sensor control means 400 has an inter-robot distance calculating means 402, which calculates a distance between two robots R on the basis of current positional information received from a plurality of the robots R, an inter-robot distance determining means 404, which determines whether the distance between the robots is below a first prescribed value α or not, an inter-detection limit distance determining means 408, which determines whether a distance between detection limits of an ultrasonic sensor 81 is below a second prescribed value β or not when the distance between the robots is below the first prescribed value α, a priority determining means 410 for determining the priority to the two robots R determined to be such that the distance between the detection limits of the ultrasonic sensor 81 is below the second prescribed value β, and a strength reducing command generating means 430 which generates a command for reducing output strength of the ultrasonic sensor 81 of the robot R to the robot R having low priority determined by the priority determining means 410.
