    摘要: A force sensor includes: a base; a first movable portion arranged to face the base; a second movable portion arranged to face the first movable portion; a support that is provided on the base and rockably supports the first movable portion and the second movable portion; a joint that is provided to the support and rotatably supports the second movable portion; and a first detection unit that can detect a force component causing the first movable portion and the second movable portion to rock and a second detection unit that can detect a force component causing the second movable portion to rotate, when external force is applied to at least one of the first movable portion and the second movable portion.

    摘要: A self-propelled device, control method, and control program therefor are provided. The method and control program each include: position estimation; determining an intersection point of a virtual path connecting start and end points and a straight line passing through a position of the device, orthogonal to the virtual path; determining an offset reference point between the intersection point and the end point; determining at least each of two offset points offset on a corresponding goal point side or a start point side of the offset reference point on the virtual path; determining at least two target points reached by rotating the offset points by 90° about the offset reference point; and causing the device to travel toward the target points.
