Abstract

A slave robot moves in conjunction with a change of a posture of an operator in a remote control system. A capture device acquires a signal indicating a posture of an operator's body. A control apparatus includes a receiving controller that receives a signal indicating a posture of the slave robot from the slave robot and receives the signal indicating the posture of the operator's body from the capture device, a posture comparing part that acquires a posture error indicating a difference between the posture of the slave robot and the posture of the operator, and a motion connecting part that transmits, to the slave robot, an operation signal for operating the slave robot generated on the basis of the change in the posture of the operator on a condition that the posture error is within a predetermined threshold range.
