  • Publication number: 20230125294
    Abstract: A route is generated for a robot with multiple parts connected rotatably. Multiple waypoints indicating a posture of the robot are registered. It is determined whether a registration waypoint is allowable as the posture of the robot. The route is generated to connect an added waypoint and an existing waypoint. It is determined whether the route satisfies the condition that the robot is operable. The adding of the waypoint and the generating of the route are repeated until the route reaches the end point. Determination results of the registration waypoint and the generated route and the condition determined not to be satisfied are displayed.
