Abstract

A robot system includes a robot having an arm including a first arm coupled to a base and pivoting about a first pivot axis and a second arm coupled to the first arm and pivoting about a second pivot axis parallel to the first pivot axis, and a first motor pivoting the first arm about the first pivot axis, and a control apparatus having a first motor control unit that controls the first motor. The robot has an inertial sensor that detects an angular velocity about a roll axis of the arm or an acceleration in a tangential direction of a circle around the roll axis, and the first motor control unit controls the first motor based on the angular velocity or acceleration.
