    Abstract: A monitoring device capable of properly detecting an object, even when a blind zone may occur for a sensor. The monitoring device has a sensor configured to a predetermined spatial area, and a judging section configured to judge presence or absence of an object within a predetermined monitoring area in the spatial area, based on measurement data obtained by the sensor. The judging section is configured to be previously set as to whether or not, when the sensor detects that the object exists within an intermediate area between the sensor and the monitoring area, the judging section judges that the object exists within the monitoring area, on the grounds of the existence of the object within the intermediate area.

    Abstract: A robot system includes a robot installed such that the working space thereof is within a first area, an image acquisition unit that sequentially acquires images of the vicinity of a boundary of the first area and a second area that are adjacent to each other with the boundary therebetween, a monitoring-area setting unit that sets a monitoring area in a space adjacent to the boundary in the second area in the images acquired by the image acquisition unit, an object detecting unit that detects a moving object in the monitoring area set by the monitoring-area setting unit by processing the images acquired by the image acquisition unit, and a controller that performs control so as to restrict the operation of the robot when the moving object is detected by the object detecting unit.

    Abstract: A robot system includes: a recognition means that recognizes an operator in distance image data as a security surveillance target; an area setting means that sets, in the distance image data, a common work area that a robot and the operator are allowed to enter; and a boundary setting means that sets, in the distance image data, a first boundary that the operator S is allowed to cross for entering the common work area but the robot is not allowed to cross, and a second boundary that the robot is allowed to cross for entering the common work area but the operator is not allowed to cross, wherein the crossing of the second boundary by the security surveillance target and the crossing of the first boundary by a non-target object not recognized as the security surveillance target are detected.

    Abstract: In a robot system, a signal output unit outputs, depending on a processing result of an image processing unit, an entry preparation signal indicating an entry preparation state, and an entry permission signal for permitting a person to enter a predetermined section in a case where the person has been requested to enter the predetermined section. The entry preparation signal is outputted when the stopping of the operation of the robot is detected, and thereafter, when the person requests to enter the predetermined section, an instruction to stop the operation of the robot, or an instruction to stop the operation of the robot as well as an instruction to stop a portion of the robot system which is necessary to enable the person to enter therein, are outputted, and the entry permission signal is outputted.

    Abstract: The robot system includes an imaging unit, an image processing unit, an entry request unit for a person to request entry to a predetermined section, and a signal output unit which, in a case where the person has requested entry into the predetermined section, outputs, depending on a processing result of the image processing unit, an entry permission signal indicating that the person is permitted to enter the predetermined section. If the image processing unit detects that the robot has reached a stopping position taught in advance after the person requested to enter the predetermined section, at least one of an instruction to stop the robot and an instruction to stop a part of the robot system which is necessary to enable the person to enter therein is outputted, and the signal output unit outputs the entry permission signal.

    Abstract: A distance measuring apparatus includes a reference object distance calculation section which calculates a distance to a reference object based on a two-dimensional image in which the reference object, which includes a plurality of feature points having obvious three-dimensional coordinate correlations, is captured, and a correction amount calculation section which calculates a correction amount for correcting a distance image by comparing the calculated distance to the reference object with a distance measurement value to the reference object in the distance image.
