Abstract: A facility device includes a sensor which includes a light transmitting unit that transmits an optical signal and a light receiving unit that receives a reflected signal which is the optical signal transmitted from the light transmitting unit, reached a target object, and reflected, the light receiving unit transmitting a detection signal on the basis of the received reflected signal; and a panel which is arranged at a position in a first direction from the sensor. A display portion is provided on the panel, the display portion being configured to guide the target object to be placed at a predetermined position. The light transmitting unit includes a first light transmitting unit that is arranged to be capable of being directed toward a location which is in the first direction from the display portion. The display portion is arranged adjacent to the sensor in a front view of the facility device.
