Robot device, movement method of robot device, and program

A robot device, which autonomously performs actions, comprising:

• a moving unit configured to move the robot device;
• a first movement control unit configured to designate a destination by fixed position information and controls the moving unit to move from current position information of the robot device to the designated position information;
• a second movement control unit configured to designate the destination by a target and control the moving unit to move towards the target;
• an instruction input unit configured to input an instruction, from a user, corresponding to the movement;
• and
• a judging unit configured to gives the destination to the first movement control unit when the instruction for the movement inputted by the instruction input unit can designate the destination by the fixed position information, and give the destination of the target to the second movement control unit when the target is a moving target.

A program for execution on a robot device, which autonomously performs actions, the robot device having a moving unit that moves the robot device, and a target position information acquiring unit that acquires position information of a target, the program comprising:

• a first program code that designates a destination by fixed position information and controls the moving unit to move from current position information of the robot device to the designated position information;
• a second program code that designates the destination by the target and, when the position information of the target is obtained from the target position information acquiring unit, controls the moving unit to move towards the obtained position information of the target;
• a third program code that receives an instruction from a user corresponding to the movement;
• and
• a fourth program code that judges whether the instruction received through the execution of the third program code can designate the destination by the fixed position information, gives the destination to the first program code when it is judged that the instruction can designate the destination as the fixed position information, and gives the destination of the target to the second program code when it is judged that the instruction cannot designate the destination by the fixed position information.
