==Original Abstract Submitted==

a calibration apparatus calculates, from a result of detecting a first marker by a first sensor that is attached to a predetermined position on a mobile robot, a posture of the first marker relative to the first sensor; calculates, from a result of detecting a second marker by a second sensor that is attached to a position different from the predetermined position on the mobile robot, a posture of the second marker relative to the second sensor; and at least calculates the posture of the second sensor relative to the origin from the posture of the first sensor relative to the origin, the posture of the first marker relative to the first sensor, the posture of the second marker relative to the first marker, and the posture of the second marker relative to the second sensor.
