Control device and control method for robot

Abstract

A controlling apparatus for a robot of the type formed by a plurality of joint actuators and operating in accordance with a behavioral schedule comprises a behavior scheduling unit for setting a robot's behavioral schedule, an operation controller for implementing an operational pattern corresponding to the behavioral schedule as determined by the behavior scheduling unit by driving each joint actuator, a detector for detecting the state of operation implementation by the operation controller and a recording unit for recording a log including the behavioral schedule by the behavior scheduling unit and the state of operation implementation by the detector. A user issuing a command for the robot is authenticated and the contents of the command supplied from the user are recorded in combination with the behavior taken by the robot responsive to the command and the time point of implementation of the behavior.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
