Abstract
A robot system includes a robot, a storage, an authenticator, a determinator, and an instructor. The robot shares a workspace with a worker. The storage stores authentication information of the worker. While the worker is approaching the workspace, the authenticator determines whether the worker is a registered worker based on the authentication information. When the worker is authenticated as a registered worker by the authenticator, the determinator determines a new operation area and a new operation speed of the robot in accordance with a type of work and a work experience of the worker. The type of work and the work experience are identified when the worker is authenticated as a registered worker by the authenticator. The instructor instructs the robot to operate based on the new operation area and the new operation speed of the robot determined by the determinator.
