Patent attributes
An apparatus including a combination possibility calculation unit to calculate a stable orientation in which, from three-dimensional shape data of a part, the part is stabilized on a flat surface, to calculate a grasping method for grasping the part with a hand, and to calculate a combination in which the hand does not interfere from system configuration data including information on a connection destination of the hand and a combination group of the grasping method and the stable orientation; a regrasping path calculation unit to calculate a regrasping path of the part by using the calculated combination; a path group calculation unit to calculate a path having the minimum number of teaching points from the regrasping path as a path group based on orientation data for designating an input orientation and an alignment orientation of the part; and a program generation unit to generate a program of a robot based on the path group.
