ROBOT SYSTEM HAVING AUGMENTED REALITY-COMPATIBLE DISPLAY
First Claim
1. A robot system comprising:
- a robot;
a controller which controls the robot;
an image capturing-displaying device connected to the controller, and having a function for capturing an image of a scene including the robot and a function for displaying the image in real-time; and
a measuring part which measures relative position and angle between the robot and the image capturing-displaying device, based on the image displayed in real-time on the image capturing-displaying device,wherein the image capturing-displaying device has a display on which additional information representing a status or an operation guide of the robot is overlapped with the image displayed on the image capturing-displaying device in real-time, based on the relative position and angle measured by the measuring part.

Abstract
A robot system using an augmented reality-compatible display, capable of providing information on the status and/or an operation guide of a robot added to an actual image or actual environment, to a user of the robot, so as to improve the efficiency of operations carried out by the user. The robot system includes an actual robot, a controller which controls the actual robot, and an image capturing-displaying device connected to the controller by a wire or by radio. The image capturing-displaying device has a function for capturing an image of a scene including the actual robot and a function for displaying the captured image in real-time. The user can obtain a scene including the actual robot in real-time by directing a camera arranged on the image capturing-displaying device toward the actual robot, and can monitor an augmented reality image.
