A robot includes a base, a first arm coupled to the base and configured to rotate around a first rotation shaft, a second arm coupled to one end portion of the first arm and configured to rotate around a second rotation shaft parallel to the first rotation shaft with respect to the first arm, a marker attached to the second arm in order to determine a control point of the robot, a first camera, a position and a posture of which are fixed with respect to the base, the first camera being disposed at a position where the first camera can image the marker that moves on a virtual plane orthogonal to the first rotation shaft and imaging the first arm and the second arm at a fixed time interval, and a control unit configured to control, every time the first camera acquires an image, based on differences between coordinate values of the control point of the robot determined from the marker in the image and coordinate values of a designated target point, a first motor that rotates the first rotation shaft and a second motor that rotates the second rotation shaft.
A robot comprising:
A robot configured as a Cartesian coordinate robot, the robot comprising:
