Abstract: A detection apparatus for detecting a three-dimensional position of an object includes a feature point detecting unit that, with consecutive or at least alternately consecutive two images among multiple images sequentially imaged when a robot is moving being a first image and a second image, detects multiple feature points in the second image including one feature point detected in the first image; a distance calculating unit that calculates a distance between the one feature point of the first image and the multiple feature points of the second image; and a feature point determining unit that determines a feature point for which the distance is the shortest. With consecutive or at least alternately consecutive next two images being the first image and the second image, processing for determining a feature point for which the distance is the shortest is repeated, thereby tracking the feature points of the object.

Abstract: A monitor apparatus includes a camera that captures a three-dimensional image and an image processing device that processes the output signal of the camera. A part of an image capturing region of the camera is set as a monitor region. The image processing device includes a region setting unit that sets a plurality of spatial regions by dividing the monitor region. The region setting unit divides the monitor region at a plurality of cutting planes radially extending from the camera serving as a start point. The region setting unit sets the spatial region on one end as a precaution region and sets the spatial region on the other end as a limit region.

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: 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.
