<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique for gripping an object reliably and completely at a low calculation cost.SOLUTION: A gripping robot comprises: a gripping section comprising an arm section, a pair of hand sections provided in the arm section, and finger sections provided in each of the pair of hand sections, for gripping an object on a workbench; a camera section provided in the gripping section for capturing an image of the object; and a controlling section for controlling the gripping section and the camera section. The controlling section: specifies a direction of gravitational force in a captured image captured by the camera section; detects, on the basis of the direction of gravitational force in the captured image, a boundary section between the object and the workbench in the captured image; and controls the gripping section on the basis of a position of the boundary section so as to insert each finger section of the pair of hand sections into between the workbench and the object.</p> |
