Abstract
A transport system, a transport method, and a program capable of selecting an appropriate support position when a target object is supported and lifted by an autonomous mobile robot are provided. The transport system supports and transports a target object by an autonomous mobile robot, the transport system including: a marker position specifying unit configured to specify a position of a marker attached to a target object; and an operation controller configured to determine a support position of the target object based on the position of the marker that has been specified.
Claims15
A transport system configured to support and transport a target object by an autonomous mobile robot, the transport system comprising:
- a reference object position specifying unit configured to specify a position of a reference object attached to the target object;
- and
- an operation controller configured to determine a support position of the target object based on the position of the reference object that has been specified.
A transport method for supporting and transporting a target object by an autonomous mobile robot, the transport method comprising:
- specifying a position of a reference object attached to the target object;
- and
- determining a support position of the target object based on the position of the reference object that has been specified.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program for causing a computer of a transport system configured to support and transport a target object by an autonomous mobile robot to execute:
- specifying a position of a reference object attached to the target object;
- and
- determining a support position of the target object based on the position of the reference object that has been specified.
