The invention relates to an industrial robot having a control system programmable by an operator via voice control. The system comprises a microphone (3), a voice analyzer (4), a speech synthesizer (6) with a sound sensor (5) connected to it. According to the invention, these elements coact with the robot's control computer (1) in a particularly advantageous manner by the program of the control computer being structured in tree configuration. A restricted number of commands act to set the computer to a certain basic condition, and each such basic condition is associated with a likewise restricted number of subsequently settable sub-conditions, each permitting a certain subsidiary condition. The number of acceptable voice commands in each instance is thus limited, allowing for the speech synthesizer to operate more reliably but yet faster than would be the case if all possible commands could be simultaneously read in. |
