1. A control apparatus for a robot comprising a joint, the control apparatus comprising:
- a dynamics parameter acquisition unit that acquires a plurality of dynamics parameters for the robot and an object gripped by the robot;
a desired joint torque output unit that outputs, as a desired joint torque, a desired value of torque of the joint of the robot;
a dynamics parameter switching unit that switches between the plurality of dynamics parameters acquired by the dynamics parameter acquisition unit;
a desired joint torque output limiting unit that limits an output of the desired joint torque from the desired joint torque output unit after the dynamics parameter switching unit switches between the dynamics parameters; and
a limit cancellation unit that cancels a limitation by the desired joint torque output limiting unit.

Abstract
There are included a desired joint torque output limiting unit for limiting operations of a desired joint torque output unit and a limit cancellation unit for canceling the limitation by the output limiting unit. An actuator of a joint of a robot is controlled in accordance with modified desired joint torque outputted from the output limiting unit, so that the robot can be controlled to be kept stopped even upon switching between dynamics parameters.
