Abstract:
A push cart includes a wheel, a motor, an obstacle detector, and a controller. The motor is configured to generate a rotational force that rotates the wheel. The obstacle detector is configured to detect an obstacle. The controller is configured to execute, in response to detection of the obstacle by the obstacle detector, avoidance control to control driving of the motor such that a movement of the push cart is limited. The controller is configured to disable execution of the avoidance control in response to a determination that a specified disabling condition is satisfied.
