Control system, control method, and program

A method for controlling a movement of a carriage in which a load is housed, the method comprising:

• determining whether or not an autonomous mobile robot is planned to move toward the carriage in a state in which the load is raised to a predetermined height or higher by a placement part, the autonomous mobile robot including the placement part having a changeable height and being configured to house the load placed on the placement part in the carriage;
• and
• controlling the carriage so that the carriage moves toward the autonomous mobile robot when it is determined that the autonomous mobile robot is planned to move toward the carriage in the state in which the load is raised to the predetermined height or higher by the placement part, wherein:
• the load includes projections projecting in a horizontal direction on both sides of the load,
• the carriage includes an open chassis, the chassis including therein a support part for supporting the projections,
• the method further comprising moving the carriage so that the placement part enters the chassis,
• the carriage further including a sensor and a mobile device and a pair of rails, the carriage is configured to autonomously move toward the autonomous mobile robot, and that a second state in which the placement part enters the chassis is in which the projections on both sides of the load are positioned above the pair of rails, and
• the method further comprising adjusting an orientation of the carriage so that a direction in which the pair of rails are extended match a direction in which the projections are extended.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program for controlling a movement of a carriage in which a load is housed and the program comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to execute:

• determining whether or not an autonomous mobile robot is planned to move toward the carriage in a state in which the load is raised to a predetermined height or higher by a placement part, the autonomous mobile robot including the placement part having a changeable height and being configured to house the load placed on the placement part in the carriage;
• and
• controlling the carriage so that the carriage moves toward the autonomous mobile robot when it is determined that the autonomous mobile robot is planned to move toward the carriage in the state in which the load is raised to the predetermined height or higher by the placement part, wherein:
• the load includes projections projecting in a horizontal direction on both sides of the load,
• the carriage includes an open chassis, the chassis including therein a support part for supporting the projections,
• the instructions further causing the processing to execute moving the carriage so that the placement part enters the chassis,
• the carriage further including a sensor and a mobile device and a pair of rails, the carriage is configured to autonomously move toward the autonomous mobile robot, and that a second state in which the placement part enters the chassis is in which the projections on both sides of the load are positioned above the pair of rails, and
• the instructions further causing the processing to adjust an orientation of the carriage so that a direction in which the pair of rails are extended match a direction in which the projections are extended.
