Abstract

With reference to a plurality of images formed by an imaging unit, the position of a robot hand to be inserted into a cassette at the time of unloading a workpiece from the cassette is determined. Hence, it is not necessary for an operator to recognize in advance configuration details of the cassette and a warp or bending of the workpiece accommodated in the cassette. Accordingly, the operator's work at the time of unloading the workpiece from the cassette is simplified.
