Abstract

A robot operation apparatus includes a touch panel, a display, an operation detecting unit capable of detecting a touch operation or a drag operation on the touch panel, a motion command generating unit that generates a motion command for operating a robot, and a display control unit that controls display content of the display. The motion command generating unit performs a motion speed determining process in which a motion speed of the robot is determined based on a slide distance that is a distance from a start position of a drag operation detected by the operation detecting unit to a current position. The display control unit performs a speed graphics display process in which a speed graphics in which the slide distance and the motion speed of the robot are correlated and that changes in aspect in accompaniment with changes in the slide distance is displayed on the display.
