The control unit is configured to perform: obtaining information indicating stay time of a worker who performs work in a workplace including a plurality of areas, in each of the plurality of areas; calculating work actual condition data indicating work time of the work performed in each of the plurality of areas; identifying a substitutable task which is substituted or assisted by introduction of a predetermined device, among a plurality of tasks of the work performed in the workplace; and outputting change information corresponding to a change in the task performed by the worker by introduction of the device, based on relationship between the work time of each of the plurality of tasks indicated by the work actual condition data and the substitutable task.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a product transfer apparatus is provided. The product transfer apparatus includes a holder unit for holding a product, an arm unit for moving the holder unit to a stock shelf and a display shelf, a first image capture unit for capturing an image of the display shelf, a second image capture unit for capturing an image of the stock shelf, and a control unit for controlling operation of the arm unit, the holder unit, and the first and second image capture units.

Abstract: In a control apparatus that controls communication of a telexistence system including a slave robot and an operating device, a state acquisition part repeatedly acquires status reports respectively from the operating device, the slave robot, and a plurality of virtual routers that connect the operating device and the slave robot while communication between the operating device and the slave robot is established. A path determination part determines a communication path for transmitting a control instruction for controlling the motion of the slave robot to the slave robot on the basis of the acquired status reports when the state acquisition part acquires the status reports. An instruction transmitting part transmits an instruction for forming the communication path determined by the path determination part to each of the plurality of virtual routers.

Abstract: A slave robot moves in conjunction with a change of a posture of an operator in a remote control system. A capture device acquires a signal indicating a posture of an operator's body. A control apparatus includes a receiving controller that receives a signal indicating a posture of the slave robot from the slave robot and receives the signal indicating the posture of the operator's body from the capture device, a posture comparing part that acquires a posture error indicating a difference between the posture of the slave robot and the posture of the operator, and a motion connecting part that transmits, to the slave robot, an operation signal for operating the slave robot generated on the basis of the change in the posture of the operator on a condition that the posture error is within a predetermined threshold range.
