Abstract
A control system includes: a controller configured to operate one or more robots in a real space based on an operation program; and circuitry configured to: operate one or more virtual robots based on the operation program in a virtual space, the one or more virtual robots corresponding to the one or more robots respectively; cause the controller to suspend an operation based on the operation program by the one or more robots; simulate a suspended state of the real space after suspension of the operation by the one or more robots, in the virtual space; and resume at least a part of the operation by the one or more virtual robots based on the operation program, in the virtual space in which the suspended state of the real space has been simulated.
Claims21
A control system comprising:
- a controller configured to operate one or more robots in a real space based on an operation program, the operation program including a plurality of time series operation commands;
- and
- circuitry configured to:
- operate one or more virtual robots based on the operation program in a virtual space, the one or more virtual robots corresponding to the one or more robots respectively;
- cause the controller to suspend an operation of the one or more robots based on the operation program;
- simulate a suspended state of the real space after suspension of the operation of the one or more robots, in the virtual space;
- and
- resume at least part of the operation of the one or more virtual robots based on one or more operation commands positioned, in the plurality of time series operation commands, after a suspension point of the operation program, wherein the operation is resumed in the virtual space in which the suspended state of the real space has been simulated.
A control method comprising:
- operating one or more robots in a real space based on an operation program, the operation program including a plurality of time series operation commands;
- suspending an operation based on the operation program of the one or more robots;
- simulating a suspended state of the real space after suspension of the operation of the one or more robots in a virtual space;
- and
- resuming at least part of the operation of one or more virtual robots based on one or more operation commands positioned, in the plurality of time series operation commands, after a suspension point of the operation program, wherein the operation is resumed in the virtual space in which the suspended state of the real space is simulated.
