Abstract

A robot includes an arm, and the arm is controlled using an offset of a reference point of a tool, the tool being attached to the arm, the offset being set based on a first state, in which a first image, in which the reference point is located at a control point of an image, can be taken by a imaging section, and a second state, in which a second image, in which the tool is rotated around a rotational axis passing through a position of the reference point in the state in which the reference point is located at the control point, can be taken by the imaging section, and controlled based on a third image, which is taken by the imaging section, and in which the control point is shifted from the reference point, in a process of a transition from the first state to the second state.
