Abstract
A teaching device for teaching a motion of a robot, including an image projector which projects an image on a projection surface in a working space of the robot; an indicator position detector which detects a position of an indicator on the projection surface; an image generator which generates or updates the image based on the position of the indicator that is detected by the indicator position detector; and a processor which calculates a teaching point for teaching a motion of the robot based on the position of the indicator.
Claims10
A teaching device for teaching a motion of a robot, the teaching device comprising:
- an image projector configured to directly project an image on a working surface of a work area of the robot;
- and
- a processor configured to execute processes so as to:
- detect a position of an indicator on the working surface of the work area within the projected image by detecting light from the indicator by using an image pickup device;
- update the projected image based on the detected position of the indicator;
- and
- calculate a teaching point based on the detected position of the indicator.
