The present invention can also be embodied as computer-readable codes on a computer-readable recording medium. A computer-readable recording medium includes all kinds of recording apparatuses in which data that can be read by a computer system is stored. Examples of the computer-readable recording medium include a ROM, a RAM, a CD-ROM, a magnetic tape, a floppy disk, an optical data storage device, and the like, and may be implemented in the form of a carrier wave (for example, transmission over the Internet) . In addition, the computer-readable recording medium may be distributed over network-connected computer systems so that computer readable codes can be stored and executed in a distributed manner. In addition, functional programs, codes, and code segments for implementing the present invention can be easily inferred by programmers of the technical field to which the present invention belongs.
The above-described robot control programming method, system and robot control method and system are not limited to the configuration and method of the above-described embodiments, but the embodiments may be modified so that various modifications may be made. All or some of them may be selectively combined.
In the present invention applying the above-described configuration, conditional expressions generated in the terminal may be stored in the cloud so that the conditional expressions are shared.
In addition, since distributed information is collected and processed in the cloud, unnecessary operations can be reduced.
In addition, the cloud can calculate the conditional expression faster by performing the calculation of the conditional expression, and it is possible to reduce the calculation burden of the robot.
In addition, since the conditional expression is received from the cloud and the received conditional expression is used, a new conditional expression can be generated more easily and efficiently.
Also, when programming a robot control program, it is easy to program by operating the intuitive tool without directly inputting the execution code of the text form.
In addition, the conditional expression includes meta data, and the conditional expression stored in the DB of the cloud can be efficiently retrieved by using the meta data.
