Abstract
A transport system includes a robot control unit. The robot control unit operates a robot to detect positions of three portions of a pallet stocker distant from one another and generates a user coordinate system in the pallet stocker based on the detected positions. The robot control unit operates the robot to detect a position of a specific portion of a shelf plate and calculates a position of a grip portion of the pallet in the user coordinate system based on the detected position and a positional relationship between the specific portion and the grip portion with the pallet being placed on the shelf plate.
