Problems solved by technology

Therefore, various problems such as positional deviation or interference between the two parts that occur during the operation of the model image may not be displayed as an observable image due to the display conditions (line of sight or drawing format) when they occur.
In this case, especially in the monitoring of responding to various problems by observing the actual movement of the robot as quickly as possible, it may take time to detect the occurrence of a problem and to identify the cause, and it is difficult to quickly implement appropriate measures.

Abstract

A robot monitoring system including a robot controller for controlling a robot ; and an image generating apparatus for generating, based on robot-control related information obtained from the robot controller, a three-dimensional model image showing the robot and a working environment thereof as a dynamic image corresponding to an actual motion of the robot. The image generating apparatus includes a display-condition setting section for setting a display condition to be changeable corresponding to the actual motion of the robot, the display condition including at least one of a line of sight and a drawing type; and a dynamic-image generating section for generating the dynamic image to be replaceable according to a change, occurring corresponding to the actual motion of the robot, in the display condition. The robot-control related information, obtained from the robot controller, includes an operation program for commanding a certain operation to the robot. A command relating to a change in the display condition is described in the operation program.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a robot monitoring system, in particular to a robot monitoring system using a three-dimensional model image of a robot. Background technique [0002] Robots, especially industrial robots, operate according to specific work programs (ie, task programs). Appropriately select various types of work programs corresponding to the type of tool (i.e., robot hand-operated device) mounted on the robot, the type of workpiece to be worked on, the content of the work, etc., and give it to the robot, so that one robot can execute Various jobs. In a production system using such a robot, a system is provided that displays a robot and a model image of the robot's work environment on a display as an animation corresponding to the actual movement of the robot based on information related to robot control such as a work program that controls the robot. device, so that the simulation or monitoring of the robot's action state can be performed. ...
