Abstract
A remote control system, in which an operator remotely operates a robot having an end effector that is capable of gripping and manipulating an object, includes an acquisition part acquiring information on a state of the operator operating the robot; an end effector capable of performing multiple types of gripping methods; a gripping method table in which the gripping methods are stored; and a gripping method selector selecting the gripping method from the gripping method table based on a joint flexion angle of the operator obtained from operator information of the acquisition part.
