SIMULATION APPARATUS FOR ROBOT SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A simulation apparatus for performing, based on an output from a detection unit that detects a workpiece transported along a transport device, a simulation of a robot system including a robot that performs a follow-up operation with respect to the workpiece, the simulation apparatus for the robot system comprising:
- a robot model arranging unit that arranges a three-dimensional robot model of the robot on a virtual space;
a configuration information storage unit that stores configuration information of the robot system;
a transport device arrangement position calculating unit that calculates a transport device arrangement position of the transport device on the virtual space based on a follow-up operation reference coordinate system related to the follow-up operation of the robot, included in the configuration information; and
a detection unit arrangement position calculating unit that calculates a detection unit arrangement position of the detection unit on the virtual space based on the follow-up operation reference coordinate system.
