Abstract
A first characteristic portion of a first workpiece and a second characteristic portion of a second workpiece are previously determined. A characteristic amount detection unit detects a first characteristic amount related to the position of the first characteristic portion and a second characteristic amount related to the position of the second characteristic portion in an image captured by a camera. A calculation unit calculates, as a relative position amount, the difference between the first characteristic amount and the second characteristic amount. A command generation unit generates a movement command for operating a robot based on a relative position amount in the image captured by the camera and a relative position amount in a predetermined reference image.
