Abstract: Provided is a robot hand including a movable unit, a hand that changes in shape in accordance with movement of the movable unit, and an elastic body that changes a gripping force of the hand. When the amount of movement of the movable unit is less than a predetermined value, at least the hand changes in shape, and when the amount of movement of the movable unit is more than or equal to the predetermined value, the elastic body changes in elastic force while at least a part of the hand stops changing in shape.

Abstract: An end effector control system that controls a plurality of end effectors connectable to a robot arm, the end effector control system including: an image acquisition unit that acquires an image of an end effector connected to the robot arm among the plurality of end effectors; an identification information acquisition unit that acquires identification information that identifies the end effector; a control unit that controls the end effector; and a memory having control information including a target position of each of the plurality of end effectors. The control unit acquires the identification information from the identification information acquisition unit, determines a target position of the end effector in accordance with the identification information and the control information, and controls the end effector to be located at the target position based on the image acquired by the image acquisition unit.
