Abstract: Provided is technology for more appropriately realizing a human physical-act using a robot. This position/force control device comprises: an act time information retaining means for retaining a time interval or a time stamp of an act, in addition to act information when the act is recorded; a control reference information generation means for generating, from the recorded act information, information to serve as a control reference when the act is replicated; a control timing determination means for determining, from the recorded act time information, a timing for outputting the control reference information when the act is replicated; and a position/force control means for replicating the act on the basis of the generated control reference information and the determined control timing.
