A robot system comprising:
- a robot;
- and
- a robot controller configured to control the robot, wherein
- the robot includes
- an arm, and
- a first operation inputter configured to allow an operation at a plurality of locations in a direction of circling around an outer periphery of the arm, and allow the robot controller to cause the robot to be in a movable state based on the operation when an operator performs the operation.
A robot to be controlled by a robot controller, comprising:
- an arm;
- and
- a first operation inputter configured to allow an operation at a plurality of locations in a direction of circling around an outer periphery of the arm, and allow the robot controller to cause the robot to be in a movable state based on the operation when an operator performs the operation.
