Abstract: A robot control system according to the present embodiment is a robot control system that controls a plurality of mobile robots that can autonomously move in a facility. The robot control system acquires error information indicating that an error has occurred in a first transport robot, acquires transported object information related to a transported object of the first transport robot, determines a second transport robot able to transport the transported object of the first transport robot among the transport robots based on the transported object information and the error information, and moves the second transport robot to a transfer location of the transported object of the first transport robot.

Abstract: A robot control system according to an embodiment is a robot control system that controls a mobile robot configured to be able to move autonomously inside a facility. When the mobile robot moves from a first area inside the facility to a second area through a partition configured to be openable and closable, a moving route of the mobile robot is set based on the mobile robot that is determined from an image captured by a first camera that photographs the first area and an obstacle that is determined from an image captured by a second camera that photographs the second area.

Abstract: A control system according to the present disclosure executes system control that controls a system including a mobile robot that autonomously moves. The control system executes a group classification process of recognizing a feature of a person present around the mobile robot and classifying, based on the feature, the person into a preset first group or second group. The control system above selects a first operation mode when the person belonging to the first group is present around the mobile robot and selects a second operation mode that is different from the first operation mode when the person belonging to the first group is not present around the mobile robot. The control system above controls, when the second operation mode is selected, the group classification process so as to execute a process with a smaller processing load than a processing load when the first operation mode is selected.

Abstract: An information acquisition unit acquires three-dimensional environmental information from a three-dimensional environmental information storage unit. A placement region detection unit uses the three-dimensional environmental information to detect a placement region where a target object is placed. A calculation unit calculates a size of a placement region in an image including the placement region. A viewpoint position determination unit determines, among a plurality of sensor positions where a sensor photographing the image related to image data can be placed, a sensor position where the placement region is larger than the placement region in the case of using image data of another sensor position, as an optimal viewpoint position. A sensor position control unit performs control so as to move the sensor to the optimal viewpoint position, and then performs control so as to start a search for the target object.
