SENSOR CONTROLLER, ROBOT SYSTEM, SENSOR CONTROL METHOD, AND PROGRAM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/208228
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a sensor controller that causes a robot system to operate so as to increase productivity. A sensor controller (40) comprises a signal control unit (41) that transmits a prescribed signal to a movable machine control unit (31) of a robot system (1) on the basis of detection results from a sensor unit (22). The signal control unit: transmits, to the movable machine control unit, a signal for stopping the operation of the movable machine unit if the sensor unit detects that an object has intruded into a second monitoring region set in the vicinity of an end effector (tool 21) attached to an end part of the movable machine unit (20); and transmits, to the movable machine control unit, a signal for causing the movable machine unit to operate so as to avoid the object if the sensor unit detects that the object has intruded into a first monitoring region which includes a region farther from the end effector than the second monitoring region.
