This disclosure relates to a method of controlling a collaborative robot, or "cobot". According to the disclosed method the "cobot" is controlled so as to make it ready to perform a task in collaboration with the human operator only when the latter is about to move into a work sector to carry out the task collaborating with the robot. The control method of the present disclosure can be implemented by means of a control system comprising detection devices, such as for example one or more cameras or a mat equipped with sensors, which detect the position of the hands or of the entire body of the operator in the space of work, a memory in which to store identification data of the sectors of work engaged by the human operator, of the times of permanence in them and of the successive sectors of work in which the human operator moves, as well as a control microprocessor unit which processes this data stored in the memory according to the method of this disclosure to predict in which work sector the operator will move his hands and when that will happen, and which controls a robot based on this prediction information. The method of this disclosure can be implemented by means of software executed by a microprocessor unit.
