Camera Position/Attitude Calibration Device, Camera Position/Attitude Calibration Method, and Robot

Abstract

The present invention addresses the problem of providing a camera position/attitude calibration device with which the relative position/attitude of a camera and a robot can be calibrated without interrupting a task which is set in the robot. This camera position/attitude calibration device is characterized by operating a robot and comprising: a task operation planning unit that plans, on the basis of an image captured by a camera installed in a robot and the position/attitude of the robot, an operation for executing a task which has been set in the robot; a calibration operation planning unit that plans, on the basis of the image and the position/attitude of the robot, an operation necessary for calibrating the relative position/attitude of the camera and the robot; and an integration operation planning unit that plans an operation by integrating the task operation plan which has been planned by the task operation planning unit and the calibration operation plan which has been planned by the calibration operation planning unit.
