ABSTRACT

A robot controller that can accurately determine whether a collaborative robot
is in either a collaborative state or a non-collaborative state. The robot
controller includes: an acquisitor acquiring a prescribed detection range from
a detection device detecting the human present in the detection range; a range
determinator determining whether the detection range acquired by the
acquisitor includes a set range set for a collaborative robot collaborating
with the human so as to include a predetermined range regarding the robot; a
speed determinator determining a magnitude relationship between an operating
speed of the collaborative robot and a first speed; and a collaborative state
determinator determining whether the collaborative robot is in either the
collaborative state of being operable with the human or the non-collaborative
state of not being operable therewith when the human enters the predetermined
range, based on determination results of the range determinator and speed
determinator.
