Control system
First Claim
1. A control system comprising:
- an information obtaining apparatus;
a network; and
a control apparatus,whereinthe information obtaining apparatus comprises;
a distance information obtaining device configured to obtain distance information indicating a distance to an object; and
a transmitter configured to transmit the distance information obtained by the distance information obtaining device,the control apparatus comprises;
a receiver configured to receive the distance information transmitted by the transmitter via the network;
a distance information correcting circuit configured to correct the distance information received by the receiver; and
a controller configured to perform control using the distance information corrected by the distance information correcting circuit, andwherein the distance information correcting circuit corrects a first distance information based on a time between a time when the first distance information is obtained by the distance information obtaining device and a time when the first distance information is input to the distance information correcting circuit from the distance information obtaining device via the network.

Abstract
A control system includes an information obtaining apparatus, a network, and a control apparatus. The information obtaining apparatus includes a distance information obtaining unit configured to obtain a distance information indicating a distance to an object and a transmission unit configured to transmit the distance information obtained by the distance information obtaining unit. The control apparatus includes a reception unit configured to receive the distance information transmitted by the transmission unit via the network, a distance information correction unit configured to correct the distance information received by the reception unit, and a control unit configured to perform control using the distance information corrected by the distance information correction unit. The distance information correction unit corrects the distance information based on a time taken from when the distance information is obtained by the distance information obtaining unit until the distance information is input to the distance information correction unit.

12. A control system comprising:
-
a camera; a network; and a control apparatus, wherein the camera comprises; an imager configured to capture an image of an object; and a transmitter configured to transmit the image captured by the imager, the control apparatus comprises; a receiver configured to receive the image transmitted by the transmitter via the network; a distance information generating device configured to generate distance information indicating a distance to the object from the image received by the receiver; a distance information correcting circuit configured to correct the distance information generated by the distance information generating device; and a controller configured to perform control using the distance information corrected by the distance information correcting circuit, and wherein the distance information correcting circuit corrects the distance information based on a time between a time when the image is captured by the imager and a time when the distance information is input to the distance information correcting circuit from the imager via the network.

13. A control system comprising:
-
an information obtaining apparatus; a network; and a control apparatus, wherein the information obtaining apparatus comprises; a distance information obtaining device configured to obtain distance information indicating a distance to an object; and a transmitter configured to transmit the distance information obtained by the distance information obtaining device, the control apparatus comprises; a receiver configured to receive the distance information transmitted by the transmitter via the network; a delay time calculator; and a controller, wherein the delay time calculator calculates a time between a time when the distance information is obtained by the distance information obtaining device and a time when the distance information is input to the delay time calculator from the distance information obtaining device via the network, and wherein the controller performs control using the distance information received by the receiver and the time calculated by the delay time calculator.
