Abstract
A teaching apparatus includes a display unit having a simulation area in which a viewpoint for a virtual robot as a simulation model of a robot is changeably displayed and an operation area in which a plurality of operation signs for moving a control point of the virtual robot by changing a posture of the virtual robot are displayed, and a display control unit that controls actuation of the display unit, wherein the display control unit changes directions of the respective operation signs in the operation area to interlock with a change of the viewpoint for the virtual robot in the simulation area.
Claims9
A teaching apparatus comprising:
- a display unit having a simulation area in which a viewpoint for a virtual robot as a simulation model of a robot is changeably displayed and an operation area in which a plurality of operation signs for moving a control point of the virtual robot by changing a posture of the virtual robot are displayed;
- and
- a display control unit that controls actuation of the display unit, wherein
- the display control unit changes directions of the respective operation signs in the operation area to interlock with a change of the viewpoint for the virtual robot in the simulation area.
A control method of controlling display of a display unit of a teaching apparatus, comprising:
- displaying a simulation area containing a virtual robot as a simulation model of a robot and an operation area containing a plurality of operation signs for moving a control point of the virtual robot by changing a posture of the virtual robot;
- changing the viewpoint for the virtual robot in the simulation area;
- and
- changing directions of the respective operation signs in the operation area to interlock with a change of the viewpoint for the virtual robot.
