Abstract: An optical scanning apparatus includes a MEMS substrate, a substrate fixing section to which the MEMS substrate is fixed, and an environment detection sensor that detects an environment factor associated with the mirror. The environment detection sensor is disposed in a position where the environment detection sensor overlaps with or is adjacent to the substrate fixing section but does not overlap with the MEMS substrate in a plan view viewed in a direction perpendicular to a surface of the MEMS substrate.

Abstract: A robot controller is a robot controller that couples a three-dimensional measuring device configured to perform three-dimensional measurement of an object using a laser beam and a human detection sensor configured to detect a person based on an image obtained by imaging a detection range including the object, the robot controller including a human detection signal receiver configured to receive, from the human detection sensor, a signal indicating that the person is present within the detection range and a robot arm controller configured to control a robot arm based on the signal. When the human detection signal receiver receives, from the human detection sensor, the signal indicating that the person is present within the detection range, the robot arm controller controls the robot arm to set an emitting direction of the laser beam to a direction different from a direction of the person.
