Abstract: A picking apparatus in an embodiment includes: a gripper, an arm, a detector, and a control unit. The gripper picks and grips an object to be conveyed. The arm moves the gripper and causes the gripper to convey the object to be conveyed. The detector is attached to the arm and senses a force applied to the gripper. The control unit controls an operation of the gripper and the arm. The control unit includes a calculator and a subtractor. The calculator calculates a gravitational force and an inertial force applied to the gripper when the gripper grips and moves the object to be conveyed using an arithmetic expression including a coefficient determined in accordance with a mass of the object to be conveyed. The subtractor subtracts the gravitational force and the inertial force calculated by the calculator from a force applied to the gripper sensed by the detector.

Abstract: Provided is a control device for an internal combustion engine, which is configured to: acquire an internal combustion engine required opening degree of the waste gate valve based on the operation state of the internal combustion engine. When the internal combustion engine required opening degree is full closing, full closing learning control is carried out by converting the target opening degree of the waste gate valve to a target opening degree for full closing learning so as to bring about a state in which the waste gate valve fully closes the exhaust bypass passage. When a state in which the position of the actuator does not change consequently continues for a set period, it is considered that the fully closed state is brought about and the full closing learning is finished, and a correction amount for the feedback control is decreased.
