I want to make robot movements.

I can make my own body movements in the "Animate Borns Directly" function, but Robot can't make my own body movements. Can robots make their own movements?

@Jun Woo K,

The Robot object does not use animations in the same way as operators. There are a few different ways to program your robot, but the most advanced and most accurate way of programming them is by using Robot Motion Paths. I recommend reading this User Manual section and practicing creating some robot paths.

I'm certain that if you figured out the operator animations, you will be able to figure out the robot paths. It's also very similar to programming an actual robot where you "teach" the robot each position and let it calculate the most efficient motion to get there.

Note: It's important that you program the robot paths so that they have ending positions that are close to the x, y, z locations of the objects with which the robot interacts.

I hope this makes sense. Feel free to comment back with any clarifications if I didn't completely answer your question.
