Abstract
In an autonomous mobile apparatus, a processor acquires map information including positional information of an obstacle, plans, based on the acquired map information, a shape of the autonomous mobile apparatus and a traveling path of the autonomous mobile apparatus to avoid contact between the autonomous mobile apparatus and the obstacle when the autonomous mobile apparatus is traveling along the traveling path, and causes the autonomous mobile apparatus to autonomously travel along the planned traveling path while assuming the planned shape.
Claims17
An autonomous mobile apparatus comprising:
- a processor configured to
- acquire map information including positional information of an obstacle,
- plan, based on the acquired map information, a shape of the autonomous mobile apparatus and a traveling path of the autonomous mobile apparatus to avoid contact between the autonomous mobile apparatus and the obstacle when the autonomous mobile apparatus is traveling along the traveling path, and
- cause the autonomous mobile apparatus to autonomously travel along the planned traveling path while assuming the planned shape.
A method for controlling an autonomous mobile apparatus, the method comprising:
- acquiring map information including positional information of an obstacle;
- planning, based on the acquired map information, a shape of the autonomous mobile apparatus and a traveling path of the autonomous mobile apparatus to avoid contact between the autonomous mobile apparatus and the obstacle when the autonomous mobile apparatus is traveling along the traveling path;
- and
- causing the autonomous mobile apparatus to autonomously travel along the planned traveling path while assuming the planned shape.
A non-transitory recording medium that stores a program causing a computer to:
- acquire map information including positional information of an obstacle;
- plan, based on the acquired map information, a shape of the autonomous mobile apparatus and a traveling path of the autonomous mobile apparatus to avoid contact between the autonomous mobile apparatus and the obstacle when the autonomous mobile apparatus is traveling along the traveling path;
- and
- cause the autonomous mobile apparatus to autonomously travel along the traveling path while assuming the planned shape.
