Abstract

A tool checking device for a robot arm includes: a tool movement control unit configured to control the robot arm so as to move a tool attached to the robot arm to a defined position; an imaging control unit configured to control an imaging device so as to capture an image of the tool moved to the defined position; and a determination unit configured to determine whether the tool satisfies a tool condition regarding a tool type or tool state that needs to be satisfied, on the basis of a captured image imaged by the imaging device.
