Abstract :
A new robot teaching system using the virtual reality technology is constructed. Operations in the point-to-point type robot teaching system are classified. Problems in the conventional system with data glove input device are clarified. Instead of data glove input, a new method using operating stick is proposed and the corresponding robot teaching with operating stick is presented. Experiments on robot teaching using operating stick are carried out and the results are discussed in detail. The effectiveness of the new method was confirmed by the experiment results
