PCT No. PCT/JP91/01566 Sec. 371 Date Jul. 14, 1992 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 14, 1992 PCT Filed Nov. 15, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO92/09019 PCT Pub. Date May 29, 1992.A robot coordinate system setting method is provided which facilitates the setting of a common coordinate system with respect to each of robots in a robot system or a robot installed in substitution for one of the robots. A coordinate transformation matrix for transforming a provisional coordinate system (X2Y2Z2), which a first robot has recognized by accessing a second jig, into a common coordinate system (X1Y1Z1), which the first robot has recognized by accessing a first jig, is calculated, and using this coordinate transformation matrix, a provisional coordinate system which a second robot has recognized by accessing the second jig is transformed into the common coordinate system which is to be recognized by the second robot, and is set with respect to the second robot. If a robot is installed in substitution for the second robot, method similar to the above is used to obtain a second provisional coordinate system, which the substitute robot has recognized by accessing the third jig, and is transformed into the common coordinate system which is to be recognized by the substitute robot, whereby the common coordinate system is set with respect to the substitute robot.
