Robot system and control method thereof

Abstract

A robot system includes a mobile robot with a driving part to move. The robot system includes a light commander to emit light and give a command corresponding to a reflecting position at which the light is reflected. The robot system also includes a position detector to receive information on the reflecting position as an image, and to detect the reflecting position, and a controller to determine a reflecting trace based on the reflecting position detected by the position detector, and to output the reflecting trace to the driving part to control the driving part. Thus, the robot system and a control method thereof, has reduced costs, and is easy and safely operated, and immediate operation teaching is possible without a compensating process.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a robot system and a control method thereof, and more particularly, to a robot system and a control method thereof that use a light generator to manipulate or teach a mobile robot. Background technique [0002] Generally speaking, there are two types of methods for instructing or teaching a mobile robot to travel along a working path, one is the teaching pendent method, and the other is the off-line program method. ). [0003] Fig. 1 is a block diagram of a teaching manipulation system used to describe a conventional teaching manipulation method. As shown in FIG. 1 , the teaching pendent system includes a teaching pendent 100 , a mobile robot 110 , a controller 120 and a memory 130 . [0004] The teaching console 100 receives information about the traveling path for the mobile robot 110 , which is input by the operator through the keyboard, and transmits the information to the controller 120 . The controller 120 cont...
